I’m going to be running a Jellyfin server, and I don’t want to maintain it a lot, I just want it to work. Would using Docker be the easier way to maintain Jellyfin, or would using Podman be better? (I don’t want to deal with SELinux, firewalls, port forwarding, etc.)

I haven’t used Jellyfin with docker before, just with podman and as a pod in k3s. Both work great and are easy to maintain. If you’re more familiar with podman then docker, then I’d recommend using podman.
