Best universal remote for Apple TV? (alien.top)

Was looking at the 3 device RCA below. I like the Siri Remote but need input function and don’t want to give up my mute button to remap it for that. Can live without Siri (can use my iPhone) so seeing what the best option is out there, and if anyone personally uses this RCA remote.

The real performance depends wildly on your network and other devices you need to control… but Ive been using the Sofabaton X1 since the kickstarter and it’s great. I have a Samsung TV, Marantz receiver and an Apple TV. It all works perfectly. YMMV, as I said... but the elegance of the remote and ability to create an activity that sets everything up is pretty cool. (My Harmony bit the dust, and replacements were expensive, so this is a good fit for me.)
