Apple TV migrating to HomeKit Mini

I had HomeKit turned on for my Apple TV and it's been working great. However, I bought a HomePod Mini to dedicate as a hub. Everything appears to be working at the moment after I installed the HomePod Mini.

Upside or downside on leaving them both up and running without making any changes to the Apple TV?

Do I need to turn OFF the HomeKit Hub w/in the Apple TV now that I've installed the HomePod Mini? Can I keep them both on as HomeKit hubs?

Thanks in advance.

You can have as many as you like.

Thanks. It seemed as if I'd get more latency when streaming if I had the Apple TV set up for HomeKit. I've turned off HomeKit and just have the HomePod Mini acting as a hub. Coincidence?

Thanks again.

Yes coincidence because some people report the opposite, but you can do what you feel works best for you.
