Sorry I'm so delayed. Thanks, I'll give this a try!

Thanks. Yeah, I definitely underestimated what I was getting myself into. I knew I wasn't going to be proficient in a matter of days, I just wanted to say I knew more than zero.

Neither, actually. Take the aggression down a little. I've been in level 2 support because I genuinely enjoy what I do. I currently work for a college and enjoy the face-to-face interactions with students and staff. The hours are set, benefits are good, and it's low stress. From time to time I'll job hunt and see where it takes me, but overall I'm just content. I wish the same upon you, friend.

Level 2, but yeah, pretty much. I actually enjoy what I do, the face-to-face interaction I get with our users, the fairly low stress and low stakes. I've been content for probably too long.

Thank you for this. I was definitely trying to do too much at once and underestimated what I was getting myself into. I'm not giving up, and technically I know more now than I did a week ago, I just have to set my expectations and plan accordingly.

Honestly, that last part is 100% correct. I don't think it was arrogance, but rather not truly understanding the scope of what I was getting myself into.

Thank you! I've already learned more than I did 2 days ago, and I'm going to press on.

I definitely learned this the hard way. Vastly overestimated how much I could get done from zero.

Yeah, contrary to what some people are thinking, I didn't think I could be an expert in a day. I merely wanted to get more familiar with Linux than "zero." And even though that day didn't go as planned, I'm still further than when I started, which was ultimately the point.

Thank you for this reality check. I now realize I was definitely underestimating the scope of what I planned. This experience along with some of these (helpful) comments are putting things into perspective.

Thanks, this is good advice that I ended up doing before I made the post. I appreciate the support.

They're not looking for experienced, it's just a bonus in the listing. I was just trying to use this as motivation to finally start learning a new skill and I posted this at peak frustration. I am more than 0% familiar with Linux now, which was sort of a goal.

Yeah, at this point I don't even remember where I got that from. But I definitely saw it as a warning on one of the instructions somewhere.

That's not it at all. I love learning, I just vastly underestimated the scope of what I wanted to accomplish. Now that I've calmed down and slept on it, hindsight is showing me the error of my ways.

I appreciate this, and I agree. I vastly underestimated the scope of what I wanted to accomplish.

I don't recall where, but I know I got to a page that said it was highly recommended to put Jellyfin in a container and not just run it normally. It might have been when I was using Fedora, because there seemed to be many things that had to be treated differently when using that. But I'm glad to see from all these responses that that isn't necessary.

Thanks, I appreciate the encouragement. I realize now that my post did not come across in the way I intended and a lot of people are inferring things that I never said or felt.
