Yocto, RockPi and SBOMs: Building Modern Embedded Linux Images
Last time I tried Yocto, some people here on HN suggested that I try Buildroot instead.
I don’t see any mention of Buildroot in this thread.
Maybe things have changed since then and Yocto is now preferable?
Regardless, if you are interested in Yocto it might be worth having a look at Buildroot as well.
My thread from years ago, where people told me about Buildroot:

GitHub - avxmw/creality_k1_fw: Tracks firmware for Creality K1 series 3D printers
If you dig through the rootfs of the K1 it becomes clear that Creality is using buildroot so we should be able to do that ourselves - at least some of us.

Curious about Roku OS
An embedded system like Roku doesn't need to "run everything", it just needs to run their "platform", which is probably quite small. It's pretty trivial to assemble your own OS from "off-the-shelf" components. You can use something like buildroot to spin up a new OS in half a day, using only the components you want. You can also use "smaller" components that have far fewer features, meaning less bugs and less updates.

Debloating Windows 10 with one command and no internet scripts
> I do this for every Windows installation that is used for similar purposes, like embedded machines that has to run a single application, virtual machines, etc.
Have you tried running Linux for these use cases? This sort of thing is an area Linux excels, in my experience.
When you run Windows, you're in for the whole kit and caboodle. Most of the components are proprietary, closed-source black boxes. You can only poke and prod and test and hope things don't break in unexpected ways.
Conversely, Linux can be easy stripped down to a bare bones kernel and a single statically-linked binary. I can run a useful application on top of Linux with the whole system weighing in smaller than bootmgfw.efi.
Something more complex, but still custom, is easily crafted with Buildroot.
