How to replicate the "smart tv experience"?
My nearest way is using my steam controller but isn't comfy to navigate Netflix or other streaming websites.

But isn’t Kodi an straight up media player instead of full blown Desktop Environment?
You still need an DE/WM installed on the system to run Kodi, you cannot just run Kodi by its own thing directly
You don't need a window manager to run Xorg clients. You're probably better off using a light one, but it's not strictly necessary.
@Otherwise_Direction7 @ccunix Yes Kodi is indeed a medic center, but you could launch it directly though a custom xsession, without the need for a de or wm. See the paste link below....
