Are there any technical/performance reasons why I couldn’t create an instance for myself and host a Plex server off of the same machine at home?

I’m fairly new to self-hosting in general, so any insight would be appreciated!

EDIT: I completely forgot to mention that this would be for a Mastodon instance, not for Lemmy.

    Are you running Windows?

    Of so you can install Jellyfin to host your media library. Jellyfin is an alternative to Plex without the inline requirements.
