Only use jellyfin. Have a list of things want to update... but it works for now.
Yes that is a laptop usb cooler used as supplemental placebo cooling. Also a pc fan I have propped up against the hard drive feeding into the pi.
Can't recall last time used the ps4 or switch. But they're there

Don't use a RPI for hosting
Get a cheap used workstation instead
Or one of those 1L business PC's
yeah I just ended up using my PC as it is pretty much always on anyways
Care to elaborate? What's wrong with "hosting" on a rpi?
Underpowered and over priced
Modern amd64 CPUs will run circles around it. Pickup something with a i5-6500 and you will have a much better experience. You also could go older or newer depending on what you are doing.
I have a pi4 and been very happy with the dimensions and low power usage. What could I get for the same price and power use?
Genuine question. Im looking at a pi5 right now.
Old Intel mini PC
For the same price and power usage as the Pi?
Likely cheaper and the power usage will depend on the hardware. In idle it shouldn't pull much power. The raspberry pi has gotten a lot more power hungry while also being poor on performance and overpriced.
