I'm thinking about buying a Raspberry Pi to start my self-hosted journey. I have three usecases in mind: Navidrome server, Jellyfin server and a Pi-hole network ad-blocking. Can a single machine (like a Raspberry Pi) run these operations simultaneously? Thanks in advance!

Based on those specs it sounds like it's going to be more than capable in a homelab environment. If you're streaming to ~5+ devices at the same time id assume it may start to struggle if it's transcoding all of those so if you can pick or convert your media to something that doesn't need transcoding that would be ideal.

but that looks like a solid buy. For reference I run on an old office potato and an external GPU from 2013 that I picked up for nothing a few years ago and have no problems. eventually I'll have to upgrade when the drivers stop being supported but until then 2-3 streams max is fine for me.

I'll be honest, I went looking based on your comment and found something thatnis either way under priced or very misleadingly titled. I have ordered it to check which.

It was 400 euro for that mini pc. I would probably move everything to it if it is real.
