If you have more experience with Linux CLI over powershell, I'd go with that. There are a few options: WSL2, MSYS2, Cygwin.

It makes way more sense to implement an auth cooldown over increasing the server load for a single action. I can't speak on the ideal settings for Argon2id, but I like to think the defaults are fine in most cases.
It is possible to tonemap DV to SDR, and I think to static HDR as well. Look into madvr and/or mpv. Both should be able to provide real-time tonemapping during playback. For reference, these pink/green videos would be DV Profile 5 (P5). I've heard the results are not great, so I would stick with P8 hybrid releases.
In this scenario, the thumbnails are going to be generated when you browse the directory. Probably what network filesystem you're using. Alternately, maybe there is a maximum file size on previews? I know dolphin has that option.
To start small setup a static website behind nginx. This requires you to create a basic website or copy a template, it goes somewhere in your filesystem, in linux /var/www is common. Once you have that, setup the nginx service and point it to that location. You can do this locally then expose it to the net or put on a VPS. Here is a dead simple guide presuming you have a remote server: https://dev.to/starcc/how-to-deploy-a-simple-website-with-nginx-a-comically-easy-guide-202g
Once you have that covered, ensure you know how to setup ssh keys and such, then install, configure, and run services. From there, most things are easy outside of overly complicated configurations.
I think that error is related to a missing dbus session but don't quote me on that.
You will probably find it easier to use a system level service, but run it as your unprivileged user with User= and Group= directives. Once you get that working, there are various other parameters you can add to harden the service if you like.
This is a good reference for hardening: https://docs.arbitrary.ch/security/systemd.html
The arch wiki has a good general reference for all things systemd: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Systemd
You can pick up a sim for about $15 and then get pay as you go from 7-11 wireless or whatever other cheap provider. This gives you a "real" secondary number and doesn't cost much if you aren't using any data.
Whether you like it or not, that's more or less what happens. You can/will lose a bunch of accounts for causing trouble. Sometimes I think it's a bit over the top. Instead of keeping out toxic or non-contributing folks it becomes a personal vendetta or innocent violation.
Overall, I'm a fan of banning known bad users, but restraint should be used and collected personal information should be minimized.
When you are seeding, you broadcast to other peers that you have pieces available. The most efficient way to exchange data is for them to open a connection to you. Without an open port (from port forwarding) they have no way to make this direct connection.
I happened across this tool to help you create configs, it looks pretty good, easier than piecing together all the parameters separately: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tools/nginx
Seems like it has directions for certbot and generating dhparams, etc. as well.
I would approach it this way:
- Learn to configure and install Jellyfin the way you like it. You sound like you have a good start on that. JF handles metadata for you, and you can also manually match items if/when it matches up. The only extra plugins I install are some of the ones for extra metadata providers and TMDB box sets.
- Setup Jackett with the qB search so you can run manual searches for stuff against your indexers.
- If you want to use docker, learn docker. There's a million tutorials around. You can use Docker Desktop on Windows if you want a GUI to help you out. Since docker on Windows runs on WSL2, it's a good opportunity to mess around with Linux if you aren't familiar.
From there you can work your way up to full automation and such if you like. I don't think it's necessary for most people.
As for data layout, just make some folders like movies, tv, music, etc, and lay out stuff in there logically. If you have a fancy storage setup, you might do separate shares for them, whatever works for you. Some people like to link from their "download" folder into their actual media folder to keep things clean. You can do hard and soft links on Windows with NTFS, but it's kind of a pain.
I don't know of any private trackers who are interested in users in your particular circumstances. The reality is, you can't really seed behind CGNAT. I would really consider shelling out for a VPN, you can get an okay one for 5-10 euro a month. If you're technically inclined, you could even set your own up on a cheap VPS for less, given you don't need fast networking.
