Tuning Jellyfin for Large Libraries

Jellyfin, at least in its current state hasn't been great for media server

Database

It is no secret that Jellyfin's database has its shortcomings, espeically when trying to search large media collections. To remedy this, we'll be manually setting some PRAGMA values in the sqlite database.

While it is important to note that these optimizations may cause issues should sudden powerloss occur, it should be pretty safe to run them in an environment like a datacenter, which is where most of my gear resides.

VSCode config to disable popular extensions' annoyances (telemetry, notifications, welcome pages, etc.)
// I'm tired of extensions that automatically:
// - show welcome pages / walkthroughs
// - show release notes
// - send telemetry
// - recommend things
//
// This disables all of that stuff.
// If you have more config, leave a comment so I can add it!!
