I would recommend you do stick with Docker for Jellyfin. Just make sure to make external folders to hold your config folder.
With the config folder being external to the Docker container, you can just link it to new Jellyfin Docker containers, and all of your data gets transferred along. It's useful when updating Jellyfin to a new version. You can even make copies of your config folder as a backup just in case.
Likewise, making an external folder for the cache means you can mount the cache folder on an SSD while the rest of your media remains on slower HDDs.
