A real-world production migration from DigitalOcean to Hetzner dedicated, handling 248 GB of MySQL data across 30 databases, 34 Nginx sites, GitLab EE, Neo4j, and live mobile app traffic — with zero downtime.
How does running a server, assuming it’s used some amount of internet bandwidth, handle residential internet speeds? If I’ve got a gig up and down, can I reasonably run like a jellyfin for my friends?
My isp hasn’t complained. I have fiber at my house and symmetrical gigabit. You should be fine if you transcode to reduce bandwidth needed as you still use your own internet. But I’m not running jellyfin on my home server.

Easily
I was running it on a couple hundred Mbps up for a while, and gig up is fine
