How did you get started with hosting your setup?
Mostly, I’ve been fed up with music streaming platforms recently, and found that Jellyfin also supports my other media cases. I started with Navidrome, but had a computer running Mint already, so I just ran both side-by-side and find I liked Jellyfin better. They both took like 15 minutes to set up; getting my local VPN running and convincing people to use it was by far the hardest part of the setup.
That all said, I’m a software engineer in my day job, so I had a pretty good idea about how to navigate everything.

And that Linus Torvalds poster? I’d be on my knees in an instant. To propose of course.

Jellyfin is great if you are only streaming content locally. If you have people outside your network trying to stream, it is more cumbersome to set up than Plex

There must be a word that rhymes better with Plex…
Nope. Can’t think of one.
