You’re correct. Projectors still mostly support 3D, so if you’re into 3D that’s the best way to watch stuff or game in 3D nowadays, outside of VR headsets, of course.

These require glasses I assume?
I’m one of the few people who actually love 3D for movies. I’d heard of the TVs but not projectors. I’d watch all movies in 3D if I could, particularly on a large screen like a projector’s. It’s especially great IMO for movies with lots of computer-generated effects - I saw the first Avatar in 3D at an IMAX and it was amazing.
Yeah. Generally for 3D you’ll want a DLP projector, plus active shutter glasses. They still make the glasses, you can pick them up on Amazon. They go for about $20 per pair.

the 3d tv’s were a super quick fad that went away in favor of uhd, hdr, and 4k i believe

Yeah. Mine is from the tail end of that, and is also uhd. It’s also supposed to be smart, but in reality it doesn’t do much, which I’m thankful for.

Not running android or some other bullshit really makes it worth its weight in gold.
