Hey selfhosters.
I have a question about starting self hosting; I have run Jellyfin on an old MacBook for a bit and wanna dip more than a toe into the self host pool. Are there any guides out there you’d recommend for actual, complete beginners who knows nothing but wants to learn?
I’ve searched a lot but it feels like they’re pretty advanced for beginners. Is it just a really sharp learning curve to this, or am I not finding the good ones?


I’ve always recommended the Linux Upskill Challenge. It takes you step by step from the cli to scripting, incrementally. It’s also a good bookmark to reference in the future.
