Is it a bad idea to use a laptop as a Jellyfin media server? Is it far better to use a desktop for that?

@hehemrin Whatever works for you. Low power consumption and built-in battery can be beneficial 👍

@milosz Thanks! Yes, I also think low-power is an advantage for laptop. Although a desktop feels as most natural choice. Now when I have read some other responses, I may try a Raspberry Pi first so I at least can get an experience. And then maybe upgrade when I find a suitable surplus machine. Thanks for your response!
