Does your amp support CEC? If so, you could make sure it is turned on for both ATV and the amp and just use the “HDMI” setting in the ATV settings.
Also, just to confirm—in the ATV’s remote>volume control settings, do you have it set to control the receiver via IR?
I don’t disagree that 8GB is generally less than I would accept for normal usage, but the way this article is written you can tell the author really doesn’t have any reasonable grasp of memory management.
You can 100% continue to purchase content and add to your library. Just because the apps have split (as they already have on Apple’s own platforms), does not mean you can not download purchased content or continue to purchase new content for download.

Buy music from the iTunes Store If you don’t subscribe to Apple Music and you want to add your favorite songs or albums, you can buy and download music from the iTunes Store. And if you previously purchased items from the iTunes Store, you can download them to your authorized computers and devices (up to 10 total).

So they are getting rid of digital downloads. Terrible news
They are not getting rid of downloads.

I do not appreciate seeing click bait on Lemmy. Please join me in reporting this post as clickbait.
MAYBE you could make an argument if my Mac screen was in vertical portrait layout all the time, you could begin to argue in favor of the thought process behind the current design.
But without that, with a landscape-oriented Mac display, the argument just isn’t there, so the thought process doesn’t make sense.
This is all before you even brain storm actual UI design ideas—the base-argument is invalid.
If you end up copying the photo library file to an external volume, be sure to hold down “option” next time you launch photos.app—that will let you select the new location for the photo Library.
Move your photo library from ~/Pictures to an external storage volume with enough storage space. Then, either turn off iCloud Photo Library and allow the process to download all you photos or just export like you were doing to the external.
Why do you want to back them up? The iCloud sync is pretty good, unless you are worried about deleting photos yourself by accident and not noticing during the 30-day window that they would still be in the “recently deleted” directory.
This isn’t a big deal.
If you’re developing in Xcode, you did not buy an 8GB Mac in the last 10-years.
If you are just using your Mac for Facebook and email, I don’t think you know what RAM is.
If you know what RAM is, and you bought an 8GB Mac in the last 10-years, then you are likely self-aware of your limited demands and/or made an informed compromise.
