More than. I was running adguard "hole" on a 2B over ethernet, a 3B is going to have computing power to spare for additional tasks if you so choose

I ran PiHole for a year on a Pi Zero W, before I eventually had to move my DNS server outside the network due to other requirements

And what about installing this plus Jellyfin or something similar?

[–] bjorney@lemmy.ca 7 points 11 months ago

I used to run Plex on a 3b+ and it couldn't handle transcoding at a reasonable quality - jellyfin would presumably be fine as long as whatever device you are streaming from can handle your native file format (my library was x265, so I had to use the Plex desktop app because Firefox doesn't support x265 and required transcoding)

Probably not. 3Bs are pretty old.

[–] averyminya 1 points 11 months ago

The 3b+ can stream 3 local direct streams without issues so long as there's no container translations i.e. no HVEC or x265.

Plenty reasonable with a 1080p only Radarr/Sonarr setup.

(This was my experience with Plex on a 3b+ for many years at least, I'd be surprised if Jellyfin were any different.)
