Maybe? You would need to know rooting a TV is even a possibility in the first place, I had no idea that was the case and I've had my LG TV for over 4 years.
I'm just pointing out some specifics of the prerequisites, which the article did a pretty bad job of highlighting imo, and how this is not the miraculous solution it's somewhat touted to be.

Not to be a Debby Downer, but you'd either need a LG TV which is already rooted, or one you can root (per the repo's README, "RootMyTV is unlikely to work on firmware released since mid-2022" and given firmware downgrades are impossible...).
AFAIK firmware updates are opt-out by default, so as long as you connect your LG TV to internet, you're likely to have received one, but I could be wrong.

Oh right, that's what I actually understood anyways, so my answer is still the same!
Cyberpunk 2077. I just finished Act 2 last night and I'm (probably) about to begin Phantom Liberty.
Really enjoying most of the story and side quests so far!
If the game is cross-buy compatible with PS3 & PS4, does that mean that buying it on PS3 or 4 will make the game become downloadable on the PS Vita too?
Yes, that's the idea.
And is the PS Vita Store still online?
It is! The only caveat is if you ever want to buy something, you'll need PSN credit on your account (paypal / credit card payment can't be used anymore).
Can I buy a game for PS4 physically on disc and get access to the PS Vita game through cross-buy, or does it only work with digital games?
Ish, that's somewhat iffy. If you were to buy it new, then maybe, but since it relies on a coupon (afaik) which could be expired by now, there's no way to be 100% sure. Used, that's a no-go.
Plus, you can buy PS4 games on the PS store for PS5, so if I buy a PS4 that has cross-buy support with the Vita on a PS5, will cross-buy still work and give me access to the game on the PS Vita?
Absolutely, that would work.
Are you looking for cross-play / cross-buy titles? In which case, I tend to reference either of those two lists:
PSP, hands down. So many incredible games, it was a RPG powerhouse, that screen was great for the time and for me it was an "everything" device (I remember browsing the web and reading mangas on the PSP... Janky but incredible all the same).
The Vita comes close - nigh "home console" games on the go and the OLED screen to make those shine.
Oh, that could likely be it - you might want to look into replacing the laser as they're pretty cheap and easy to find (but that's not really what you're interested in atm I suppose).
Anyways, the emulator you want to look into is DuckStation. It is pretty much full featured (save states, fast-forward/rewind, etc) and the de-facto PSX emulator to beat.
I only played through most of the first one, but really enjoyed it! The second one is firmly on my backlog.
As for FFT (WotL), do you have a Vita lying around? Its around $10 USD on the store iirc. Same on Android, but I'm not sure about gamepad support.
A physical copy shouldn't be much more, be it for the PSP or PSX versions.
Oh yeah, I know Control was very well liked in general!
I honestly didn't bother with any of Control's DLCs, since I didn't appreciate the combat at all and found the amount of backtracking obtrusive.
Just finished Cyberpunk 2077 and Phantom Liberty, which I enjoyed greatly, despite all the jank!
I'll likely move on to DMC 5 now, since I left it unfinished a few years ago and would like a shorter / fast-pace game atm.
I've also been playing a fair amount of Guilty Gear Strive on the side, first real fighting game and it's a blast so far trying to learn the right combos, cancels, etc...
