Hi everyone.

Glad to post on Lemmy for the first time.

I have an ubuntu that runs a whole jellyfin/arr/torrent docker stack and used to use it as my main work and backup server.

I decided it would be best practice to host my work data on a separate machine in case anything would ever go south virus wise.

I only download and host movies, shows and music there and its all being played through the jellyfin docker.

Am I being overly cautious? Can I even get a virus like that? Has that ever happened?

Or should I continue to separate work and entertainment?

More details on my setup: i3 12100 NVMe 500 GB hosting OS and docker files (including jellyfin cache for snappy access) 5x4TB HDD mergerfs and snapraid

Ubuntu 22 LTS Tailscale Mullvad

    It wasnt containerized sadly but remember in a container you still share (albeit split by cgroups) kernel space and the kernel. Only userland is isolated.

    So kernel level sploits are still a concern. Wasn’t the case here but still.
