The true plug-and-play user friendly way is to buy a NAS device and install all apps there.
i think this space will actually get bigger because of everything going on. these nas devices will ve the way to go for your average user.
------- what i did, if you are curious ------
i have everything running on proxmox. mostly as lxcs. there are proxmox helper scripts so it installs nice. i use proxmox for a lot of services so ut all wotks. also, for hardware rendering , intel cpus work better because of intel qsv.
i bought a ugreen nas device. bought an nvme. installed truenas on the nvme, because i like it and its open source. tge ugreen device has a built in boot drive with ugreen os which you can not download so i did not want to overwrite it.
now i have 27 years professionally as a software dev, so i had a foundation to learn this stuff. i want to give a heads up if you use an llm for learning. always ask it to explain and question things. look up any new terms. because of my experience, i understood most of the answers it gave and questioned when i didnt. i remember one time it said to do one thing (i dont remember) and i asked for more info. when i understood i knew it was missing something. i said "but i have x, y, and z" which in alm fairness i never mentioned and it did change the answer. my long-windwd point? dont run anything, unless you fully understand why. this advice goes for anyone not just using ai. people will be wrong too. know what you are doing
So, in a scenario where I’d wanna run a Jellyfin server and potentially an Immich in the future, they could all go on NAS?
Would this be command line exclusively too?
the nas just has a button like ibterface. its like installing a game from steam
