What operating system do you use for your home server? I’m planning to do unraid but what are the other options and why would you pick one or another? in c/main@selfhosted.forum

Currently running 1 server. Ubuntu, with docker because I'm not doing a ton, but I don't want to have to take down my pi-hole if I need to reboot jellyfin. etc.

Do you want to spend all your time managing your email server? 'Cause this is how you get to that point.

What is the cheapest setup that works for your Plex/Jellyfin setup? in c/main@selfhosted.forum

Running Jellyfin on a 5th gen i5 that I've had sitting in a closet for years doing nothing.

Running Ubuntu with 16 gb of ram. Transcodes single streams just fine. Most of my files are MP4 anyway. I run everything at 1080.

I ran for a bit on a Raspberry Pi 4. That seemed a bit strained, but OK.

I didn't like the reliability of the Pi.
