    On mission critical servers with a lot of users logging into it, sure. On my server, my home directory has pretty much nothing in it except a couple dozen KB worth of scripts I wrote to automate some tasks. On the servers at my work, the /home partition is usually around 10GB and is used by 10-20 admins.

    Shared media should not be hosted in /home. Service users (jellyfin) don't have homes and don't need homes. You should create a directory in /mnt or /media or something like that to put your library.

    If you're able to, shrink /home, give /var a bit more space for metadata, cache, and transcodes. Give the rest to the / partition or create a separate /media partition.
