## Talk first

> **Stop.** Don't read Reference until we've talked.
> In chat, say **"let's do TB-027"** or **"jellyfin instead of plex"**.

**In one sentence:** Self-host streaming in Docker instead of host-native Plex.

**Why it came up:** Only if you want to move off Plex licensing / centralize in compose.
