Wow, you somehow answered my follow up before I could even ask it.

My main goal was to eventually do a plex or jellyfin type setup for the house. Good to hear that it works just as well on Linux. Is the setup more difficult, or are there enough guides and documentation that it's not too bad?

Glad I could help.

Installing Emby/Jellyfin is dead easy.. you won't have trouble. Literally install, then run the web interface and configure from there

Plex and Jellyfin both work fine on Linux. Installing is as simple as it is on Windows, because they offer Linux downloads as well.
