Hey, folks I’m moving my main PC to linux soon, and for that I have settled on Mint. However, I also plan to build a homelab pc for the first time to selfhost some services, mainly Jellyfinn, some game servers, and possibly next cloud, but I’m unsure which distro to go with for that.

I have some experience running debian headless (on an orange pi) and I can use ssh and the cli just fine, however, I also want the server pc to (maybe) serve as a moonlight client in my living room, so I was leaning towards something that is not headless, and I am unsure if I should also go with Mint for that or if something else might be more suitable.

    How good is invidious?

    The experience, at least in my case, has been the same. Invidious is very hit or miss due to YouTube’s methods of blocking connections, one day my instance will be working perfectly fine and the next will drop some obscure error. While my instance is technically public, it is only exposed to 1 country and even then hardly gets any hits off of my reverse proxy.

    Thankfully they tend to update pretty frequently when YouTube starts acting up on a large scale.
