Because I'm forced to use a Mac at work. So to avoid their terrible UI, I use the terminal for most of the things. Then switching back to Linux is relatively easy.

Also it is faster in most cases and it's keyboard-first.

It does. What concerns me is the sign "up to 2TB". And I don't understand if it is a limitation of preinstalled os or hardware.

Good to know. For me torrenting is the only case

This is really good, do you know if I can plug my 4tb m2 ssd in there? If yes, I'm moving tomorrow😁

I see a lot of people recommend it. Is it really good? I've made my setup with proton but I'm not really happy with connection speed and seeding.

Debian was the reason, why I've started distro hopping, in the first place

From your list, I would go with Debian. Fedora is amazing but doesn't have LTS, so you'll need to update it manually quite often. You can use a script for automatic updates, but I rarely had it working smoothly. Ubuntu is just a joke with repository hell. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone but grandma or a child for the desktop, because of its simplicity. TrueNAS never tried...🤷

I would also look into Alpine and some Arch-based distros.

And yes, use containers, this will save you time eventually.

The only real requirement you have for the Jellyfin server is ffmpeg... But this thing runs everywhere

I bought their subscription just to watch it... A month after they decided to remove it. It was the main reason for me to set up my home media server with torrent. They've got what they wanted, I pay pirates instead of then

I always give some bs emails in those authentication forms. Mainly because as a client who tries to connect, I do not have internet access, so I cannot verify my email before they give me the access. And when they gave me access, there is no power in the world to make me do that 🤷
