What streaming apps can you log into with directv credentials?

Basically the title. I'm a cord cutter who's considering going back to DirecTV due to the increasing number of streaming apps adding up to just about as much as I used to pay for satellite. However, most of those apps have exclusive shows, a lot of which myself or members of my family enjoy. I know that if you have something like HBO on your package you can log in, but what about services like discovery plus and paramount plus? I've been trying to find a list of apps you can log into with your credentials but my googling hasn't turned up much. I don't want to end up missing out on things we enjoy or spending way more than I already am.

AFAIK HBO Max is free for the first year with a DTV HBO subscription and I doubt that any other streaming service like Paramount plus allows DTV  logins as my brother has it and still had to subscribe to it.

The "plus" streaming options are provided directly by their respective networks. They have nothing to do with your regular pay TV provider. Naturally they lock exclusive content behind this to drive subscribers.

There are no pay streaming services I know of that you can use your Directv credentials on unless you are paying for them through Directv such as HBO or Showtime. The only streaming apps where your Directv credentials work are network apps that are free and also Directv channels like ABC, NBC, CBS, TNT, TBS, etc.
