Thank you both for your thoughts, I really do appreciate it.
I was looking into setting up something, maybe using cron, that will send me an email when there are updates available. I am using this as a way to increase my knowledge.
Because I used to travel quite a bit, and I liked its more robust security, I have always run Linux on my laptops. Over time, I became "lazy" with how easy Ubuntu made it. About 5 years ago, I installed Arch on a bet, and I have not looked back. Since that time, I have learned to prefer using the CLI where and when I can. I am slowly moving this preference over to my home server.
My problem is, I tend to over think things when I am in the research phase. Then I have to kick myself into action and just "do it". That all being said, I am still in the research phase of going headless. Eventually, I will give myself a "kick" and just do it. I mean, it only took about 3 months of researching Jellyfin before I installed it to replace my P*** install.
Right now, this is my server.
Ubuntu 20.04 ESM
AMD Ryzen 3 3300X
Asrock B450 Steel Legend
16gb Kinston DDR4 3200 CL-16
Kingston M.2 SSD 256gb boot drive
2-8TB WD Red
3-4TB WD Blue
I am slowly replacing the 4TB drives with 8TB. I also know that I will need to move off of 20.04 ESM at some point, but see above.
