Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

It really depends on if you need transcoding or not. If no, it doesn't matter. If yes, check for integrated GPUs on both models and check that it will work as a transcoder for jellyfin.
What do you think about a i5-7200U? It has a Intel 620 iGPU.
People generally recommend 8th gen or higher Intel chips for transcoding so I'd look at alternatives. I have a Dell with an 8th gen i5 and that works very well.
How much was it?
That is Kaby Lake and seems to support up to HEVC for decoding which might be enough for you

For a bit of future proof you might want to check out something Tiger Lake or newer since it seems like they support AV1 decoding in hardware.
Unfortunately tere doesn't seem to be a market for used Tiger Lakes yet.
What is your budget?
Best would be below 100€. 200€ would be possible but I'd have to save a bit.
