Ah, okay. So, if I understand correctly, unless I'm trying to have Jellyfin do what YouTube does with offering multiple resolutions and bitrates for video, I don't need to bother with looking for a GPU that's good at video transcoding?
Even though there are builds available online for these platforms, they are unofficial and from a separate project. If you do encounter issues on these platforms, please ask for support in their respective support channels first.
I'm beginning to realize I haven't looked into this as much as I should've. 😅 So for most people, with what @AtariDump has mentioned, a raspberry pi with 1 or multiple hard drives (if you really want) is a good start.
It's the interest in how well the HAMMER2 filesystem works for everyday storage, as well as how swapcache performs. Not much besides that, plus I've generally decent experiences with Net and OpenBSD.
Not really. It's more out of the curious of how DragonflyBSDs HAMMER2 filesystem works. I've good things about it and ZFS on FreeBSD. ZFS on Linux I've heard is still getting up to where it is on FreeBSD.
Hmm, I think that was the one I was wondering about. I use Gentoo, and when I was initially setting everything up on my machine, I saw there were a lot of caveats for using ZFS on linux from the Gentoo wiki entry on it. Maybe that's changed or those issues are no longer related to native encryption specifically.
