Forgive the question, I have an idea of what I want to run on it (jellyfin, sonarr, etc) but I am having a hard time figuring out optimal OS to run.

Windows? Linux? Something else? Any beginner advice is welcome!

      No op, but I did the server first and then switched to desktop for the sole reason of wanting to click on some things instead of terminal only

      I had issues getting hardware acceleration working on server…but, I guess that isn’t a issue on a mini pc

      Also with them being new Desktop offers a lot of tools and easier to navigate. However I do a minimal install not a full one
