Exactly this myself. Debian lxc with jellyfin repo added, media on ZFS with passthrough mountpoints, very performant and easy to maintain.

Jellyfin is also conveniently packaged as a .deb and provide a repo for Ubuntu/Debian. It’s pretty easy to spin up a Debian container, add the repo, and apt install jellyfin, IMHO easier than doing the same thing with a VM, then docker…
To be fair to the other side, it’s entirely possible (and even common) to have worked in a field for 20 years while learning completely incorrect things about it. Or learning nothing.
People say things like “I’ve used a computer every day for 20 years, I think I know how it works” and then ask if they should “reboot the hard drive” and then they power cycle the monitor.
