For type sizes, I have some go-to sizes, indeed between 14 and 18px for body text. You are right on different sizes for websites and app contexts. It depends a lot on the x-height of the font used as well.
As for frame sizes, a modern website is responsive, providing a good layout for mobile, tablet and desktop. There is such a wide range of sizes. I think using Figma’s standard frame sizes is a good idea (you can see this when you hit F for a new frame.)
1920 x 1080 sounds a bit large to me, that’s a 1080p TV size - or that would be a website on a large monitor. I wouldn’t recommend using that size unless you are doing the “large screen mockup” of a website or doing something TV-specific.
