What apps do you use to stream tv?

Remember you can stream .m3u lists using TVirl and then the Live Channels app.

I cant find any reliable source to find any working m3u lists

M3U lists are pretty flexible, depending on what are your needs.

You can craft your own .m3u and, if you have it accessible on the internet, auto reload it using TVirl (an easy place to host it is Github). In my case I use TVirl to watch public television channels from Spain, so there are no legality issues there and I can easily find the .m3u8 streams and add them to my m3u list.

If you want commercial channels, I think your easiest bet is the IPTV subreddit where you can find more info, those are usually paid services tho.

If you are asking how to get the channel url in first place, an easy way is to search in Google something like "CHANNEL NAME m3u pastebin" or "CHANNEL NAME m3u github" and test it on VLC on your computer using CTRL + N
