Whatever you do, make sure you setup the services in docker or similar so moving stuff around is much easier in the future.
If you're not super familiar with docker/linux and have adequate system resources, I would stand up a vm for the stack and then use something like saltbox to deploy. It's built primarily for remote hosting with cloud storage but there's guides for local storage and the discord channel is great.
I'm familiar enough with Linux to cludge my way through most things, but this will be my first time with docker (honestly stoked to learn it).
So would you suggest I get things squared away in docker first, then move things over, or should I fresh build everything directly into docker? Are there any weird artifacts or config issues with importing a backup from an existing windows installation of the *darr apps or similar?
I've ran Plex and other apps directly on Raspberry Pi's for years but started playing with docker. I really prefer it and always try to go for docker images over regular app installs. When it came to upgrading my stuff from Pi3 to a Pi4, because I put all my docker stuff on an external drive I could just mount that drive on the new Pi and then run my docker-compose file to get everything up and running again. Containers are awesome!
I'm confident with Linux but by no means an expert. So if I can get it working then anyone else can. My advice though is to avoid using Portainer to create your containers. It may look easier cause it has a GUI but do ker-compose is not hard. Having that one file for all your apps makes life nice and easy
