Maybe you can check KDE Bigscreen. It's more like a preset that you can download for a KDE desktop but is a basic tv ui
Oh fuck yeah this looks like the one.
Probably gonna do Fedora + KDE Bigscreen.
EDIT: It's not released yet due to inactive development... bummer.
It released, but for the prior version of KDE, not current.
That said, take a look at Application Dashboard, Plasma Drawer, and maybe Rocket but I don't think its been updated in a few years.
