I was using this to read put a gift card code to make a purchase over the phone with apple (don't ask why, it was a shit show), and when I gave Sierra, the person thought it was C as in Ciara. Had to repeat the whole thing over again.

I’m glad yours is stable! I don’t know why, but mine, if you’d cut a loud fart near the server Nextcloud would just shit the bed on me. God forbid I try to update Nextcloud.

Like you I had most plugins disabled, and I was the only user. I first ran Nextcloud using NextcloudPi on an rpi4, and that ran solid for like four years. However, when I repurposed that pi and moved Nextcloud to my server in Docker, it just would not reliably run for me no matter what I did. At that point I also wasn’t really using Nextcloud anymore so I just abandoned it as not worth the effort.

I still have all my cards and still play with friends, but the Pinkerton move was the last straw for me. I haven’t, and won’t ever again give WotC money.

I used to love playing MtG. I don’t really anymore, and I won’t give another dime to that shit company. Fuck WotC and fuck Hasbro.

What exactly did you install? Depending on the OS and its software center, you could have installed the Jellyfin client or the Jellyfin server.

I don’t know what you know, so forgive me if this is overly simplistic.

Regardless of which you installed, one is useless without the other. Getting Jellyfin set up starts with the server which can be installed and setup a number of different ways.

If your goal is to set up a media server so you can watch your media on different devices and platforms, then Jellyfin is a good option for this.

If your goal is to watch media on the pc you bought, and you don’t care about watching it on other platforms or devices, then you’d be better off with something like VLC which you can use to watch/listen to media files on that computer.

If the goal is a media server the next question is, do you plan on using the pc as a server for more than just Jellyfin? If the answer is no, you just want Jellyfin, then installing the server from software center, flathub, or whatever cli package manager your distribution uses will be fine and setup should be relatively simple.

If you plan to use the pc as a server for a number of different pieces of software, getting familiar with Docker and containerization is a good idea, in which case I’d point back to the video I linked in my previous comment.

If you want more details on any of this I’m happy to elaborate. I’m no expert, but I’m happy to share what I’ve learned, and the resources I’ve used to learn.
