The 55' tv is 38.8 lbs and I used 6 drywall anchors rated for 80lbs. I hung it 24 hours ago at a friends house, and I've been nervous since reading contradictory information online. Having only done wood studs in the past, here I encounted metal studs and didn't have the tools to get into them. IS this an ok solution?
This website ( https://www.todayshomeowner.com/how-to-hang-anything-on-anything ) Makes me feel that it should be ok, but many ppl on reddit from the plamsa tv days have horror stories.

Yes, you'll be fine. The TV won't fall off the wall unless the drywall itself fails (i.e. water damage or earthquake) or someone hangs off of it.
