In the case of Jellyfin I would recommend that you use one of the first party packages from the project itself rather than from your distro or a third party packager. I'm not sure if it's still the case but primary supported packaging/distro until recently was .deb on Ubuntu or Debian, or Docker. I've got Deb on Ubuntu myself but if I were doing this again I'd definitely make it a docker install. Not needed to with jellyfin but so much easier to rollback with docker

The flatpak is the same version as the project repos. As it's easier to install, that would be my preference.
Sure. It's on the page I linked, as a community install
OK. I'll do that.
I found the Flatpak significantly easier than any other method. The only thing I had to do was set it to run when the computer boots up to save a click.
Thanks. So there are no functional restrictions in the flatpak?
I haven't run into anything. It works the same as it did when I installed it manually on my last OS.
Cool. Flatpak it is then.
