I've tried it with the two iPad2 devices that I still have. Here are a few things that you cannot do:
1) Anything that requires MFA via Apple.
2) Full backup/restore will not restore old versions of the apps. New versions are either unavailable or don't work.
3) Any popular streaming service such as Netflix/Amazon Prime/AppleTV.

You can manually go in and download “the last compatible version” 3. Netflix is usually good about supporting old devices. Amazon disabled an older auth protocol. Apple TV+ videos can be accessed via the web (tv.apple.com). While Safari seems to always redirect you to the app, Chrome for iOS doesn’t.

As an aside, I threw away my 1st gen Apple TV over a year ago because Apple bricked it. It needed MFA to sign in (because it timed out?) and only accepted four digits.
