Yes, you can install macOS on the Apple TV HD. It’s a popular choice for users who want a full desktop experience without needing to use the TV’s built-in features.

Likely not. Initially, only the first generation used x86 architecture, but they later switched to ARM-based chips for their iPhone and iPad, which don't run MacOS versions.

MacOS currently supports ARM but adapting it for Apple TVs isn't straightforward. You'd need to jailbreak the device and create custom drivers, which would likely be unreliable due to Apple TVs' limited memory.

The only Apple TV that ever had its features accidentally was the x86 model using a Core Duo setup.
