I've been thinking of just putting Linux on my server instead of Windows 10 but then I have to re-do allllll of the stuff that I have setup to auto-get certain shows and whatnot and I have no idea how to do all of that with Linux. I also have no idea if I could simply backup my Jellyfin folders on Win10 and simply copy them to Linux so that I don't have to do any configuring at all if I did switch OS's. Do I use Jellyfin within Docker on Linux? Or just JF? And if Docker, how do I have JF read my external hard drive with all of my JF media on it that gets auto-downloaded?
Then comes the conversation of, "which flavor of Linux?" I'd assume Ubuntu or Debian. I'd also prefer a GUI because I hate command lines and not visually seeing what I'm doing, plus one can navigate much faster by simple double-clicking on a GUi versus typing out commands all day.
