    Plex migration update: Gave up on Debian, installed Mint. Mint installed great, more options in the GUI this looks promising. It wants an update, no worries go for, reboot aaaaaand it no longer boots. You have got to be shitting me linux. Installed windows, replaced plex files and looks to have completely failed. Gave up in frustration and went to bed.

        I am completely ok with the level of Linux skill I already have. The ammount of time and money I have poured into improving the plex experince is really starting to feel like a sunk cost fallacy.

          fair enough. If you do feel like giving it another swing try unbuntu or kubuntu, there’s a reason why they’re so popular.

          I’m arguing with Kodi because His Lordship likes the interface but I refuse to change the naming conventions on the fileserver to serve the fucking machine.

              My fserve is an ancient beast that basically sits there holding content. I’m happy to use straight up file shares, but His Lordship hasn’t a clue as to half the shows on there and wants to be coaxed lol

            I heard Ubuntu isnt popular due to snaps integration. The whole point is a lightweight build to try improve the plex experince so probably not ideal.

            Then again, makes windows even less ideal.
