If we can avoid massive collective issues that would be appreciated as there is very little agency the individual has to address those and that helpless ess can often extend to the more solvable individual matters we all grapple with but also occasionally rise to conquer.

Linux distro shouldn't really matter here. Given what you've said, I would recommend using Debian just because it's the most popular server distro and a lot of server guides will either assume you're on Debian, or have instructions for Debian. For instance, if you see suggestions to install software using sudo apt install software-name-here, that's for Debian.

You would probably want to use Docker for this. There are instructions on how to install Jellyfin with Docker here.
