Linux Distro for Jellyfin Client HTPC - eviltoast

I’m looking to replace my Rock 5B running Android TV (the OS jank has finally gotten to me) with an x64 Linux HTPC coupled with an Rii remote.

What distro would one recommend for a “Jellyfin native” client setup? I’ve run Kodi with the Jellyfin plugins before and not been a fan of the experience.

    Thanks for the Fedora nod. I’m looking in to Bazzite. For Intel transcoding on the server I had to install the non-free firmware, and will probably have to do the same.

      Check out the other Ublue projects, there are slimmer alternatives in case you won’t do any gaming.
