I rebuilt an old Windows PC as a host for a Jellyfin server and used Mint because that's what the guide recommended.
Easy setup. Everything works great. So I told my friends about it. And, naturally, they went with Mint, too, because we all know that setup works.
That's it. That's the only real reason why. I have a simple need and Mint got the job done.
