Interesting, I must have missed it when investigating. It seems a little "Linux power user"-y, though - is that accurate? It says for home office, but is it good for movies/music/etc hosting?

I can figure out how to get things done when I know the goal (I learned plenty of command-line, docker containers, etc setup with Unraid). So not a beginner. But to be honest, I can't even understand if the features on this "features" page are things that are important to me because I don't know enough acronyms and foundational knowledge, so it's a little imposing.
Not OP but I use it as my nas for my jellyfin stack and run docker containers on it just like unraid. It is less plug and play than unraid. Specifically to mirror the unraid array on omv, but it can be done. I used this site a couple years ago, it appears to have been updated, but hopefully will help. https://perfectmediaserver.com/
It's certainly not very user friendly in the initial setup. It took me quite a while to figure out how to set it up. But once that's done, it works very well.
