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.

Monk Dad 😐
It is not even a joke. Every time we cross the border between the Netherlands and Belgium in a car, we laugh about how distinct it is.
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
Oh man, you have some serious AI here!
I've just finished my setup with Radarr, Sonarr, Jellyfin, qBittorrent and nzb360. I've paid 120€ for proton vpn for 2 years, 200€ for m2 ssd for 4tb and a few bucks for domain to access my setup from anywhere. Also, I have a 1gb internet connection for 65€ pm...
So, I'm willing to pay... I don't want to spend all this time configuring scripts and integrations(though it was fun 😁)... But paying for Netflix, Prime, HBO, Disney+ and not being able to watch everything I want, simply makes me angry and miserable.
Duck them all. Arrrrr
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 🤷
Are you living in the US by any chance?
BoJack, is it you?
I've never had better experience with Linux than on ThinkPad. It made me love distro hoping again.
