From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Jellyfin has mobile and desktop clients.
For me for a long time it was a coin toss between Plex and Jellyfin.
For some long forgotten reason I ended with Emby and eventually migrated to Jellyfin as its true free open source fork.
With jellyfin DLNA server i can play same music on Apple TV, etc. although DLNA clients are certainly not as nice as native apps. One can offset problem with playlists.
Both have quick start wiki pages like this: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Jellyfin
