    Jellyfin runs as the jellyfin user, so there are other users involved from a permissions standpoint.

    Symbolic links do not bypass the permissions of the linked path. And you should not open up the permissions on your home directory. You may not know they are there, but there are a lot of private and sensitive files in your home directory that should not be opened up to other users.

    Read my Linux permissions primer.
