Does anyone run one of the above on a Pi 4 and can share their experience how good or bad they run?

If course, transcoding won't be any good and OCR probably cannot run in parallel, but aside from that - is it okay?

Currently running everything on a mini ITX with a i5-6600 which handles this easily for my small use cases, but also draws 20-30W idling most of the day... I'm eyeing a Pi 4b with 8gb RAM but don't want to spend the money and then realizing that it doesn't run smooth enough

I tinkered for years with numerous Raspberry Pies but got tired of it. Bought a second hand Dell ThinClient Wyse 5070 for like 70€, installed DietPi and its awesome.
