    I use Jellyfin for music and shows. Jellyfin made it easier for me to sort the ripped CDs by directory instead of all in one shared Dir.

    Also, telling people to use an LLM to figure out how to self host is like telling a 16yo to play GTA to learn how to drive.

    They might figure it out, they may just kill hookers and rob a bank without ever learning how to drive the car.

    Here’s a full guide by the FUTO organization that consists of over 13 hours of information on self hosting and how to do it step by step.

      “Telling people to use an LLM to figure out how to X is like telling a 16yo to play GTA to learn how to drive” is my new catchphrase, thanks internet person (I presume person, could be mistaken…)

      There is self hosting and there is self hosting.

      I run a proxmox machine with a dozen services but just looking at a guide like you send is overloading.

      I will save it as a useful reference but its beyond what people who are less tech inclined then me will need to start.

      Most people just need docker and some premade compose files. An llm can absolutely tell you how to install the first and create the second. People will know quickly if they want to learn more on their own or prefer to call a friendly nerd to do it for them.

        If they’re less tech inclined they should use YUNOHOST. Its a Debian based distro thats been around for years. They’ve got preconfigured packages and everything is done via the webUI. Theres no reason to involve an LLM that frequently gives outdated and bad information.
