This may be a silly question, but as far as online games that work, it shouldn’t matter if my friends are on Windows, right?

For the most part it’s fine like the other comment mentioned.

However there are a few edge cases like Borderlands 2 that is like pulling teeth to make work.

Not having touch anything is a selling point for me. Bonus points if I can roll up the window too.

I’m not the original commenter.

However any game with invasive anticheat tends to be allergic to Linux.

Microsoft game pass has really good value that isn’t supported on Linux. (I’m told the streaming stuff did work but I haven’t personally confirmed)

I have family that likes to play fortnite with me and that didn’t work last time I looked into it.

You could migrate jellyfin into a Linux container and share the media through a local loopback and configure it for a headless installation if you can’t give up that Windows installation.

Alternatively like another person suggested configuring it as an service could help here
