That was several months ago, and I still don’t know if the problem was my Apple software or LG operating system. Samsung TVs have always worked fine.
P.S. older devices do get phased out, and that includes Roku, Amazon, and Apple. Using the native TV apps is cheaper, but the operating systems are so clunky.

I have been using all Apple TV devices for over a decade with no issues. Your Apple TV was not the issue, you have another problem.
Apple TV devices are much better than the Roku/firestick/chromecast devices. The downside is that they cost a little more, but since I also use them as hubs for my whole house automation, they can display my ring doorbell camera in the top right corner if somebody comes up to the door, and the Apple TVs run all the apps I need.
The tv salesman is wrong to say that you don’t need a roku because you might have an app that runs on Roku but won’t run on your tv.
Plug in your roku device, then make this hdmi port your default port so when you start your tv, it always starts your roku.
