you should probably use a different operating system if you use it as a server

If it was only used as a server, then I would. But it isn't, so I don't.

I use a Manjaro box to game on. And video edit with davinci resolve. And so everything else that I do. Truenas for my NAS.

It's really not a good idea to have a home server you don't update, assuming it's accessible outside your network.

Windows updates suck, but they can be delayed to only take place every 6-8 weeks.

They are probably using their main desktop as their jellyfin server.

Or use Windows server. It would never do shit like that.

Alternatively you could just not postpone updates for weeks.

Just update your computers and this will never happen.
