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.

    Lol Wat.

    Op, just budget 200gb for lemmy and you’ll be fine. Our entire lemmy.ca server is only using 100gb. It’ll be a good learning experience!

    Also, check out jellyfin as a possible alternative to plex.
