I'm going to be running a Jellyfin server, and I don't want to maintain it a lot, I just want it to work. Would using Docker be the easier way to maintain Jellyfin, or would using Podman be better? (I don't want to deal with SELinux, firewalls, port forwarding, etc.)

Like other commenter said, regardless of podman or docker you will need to handle port forwarding, and any firewall changes.

Port forwarding through docker or podman is pretty similar, if not identical.

I have heard good things about podman but I personally had some strange issues when moving from docker to podman, specifically transferring docker networks to the podman equivalent.
