Today i destroyed my Jellyfin server because reasons (i.e. admin error)
Luckily I do a daily backup of the database etc, which I copied back which fixed the problem. I never thought I would need that. Glad I had it.
Moral of the story: Back up your Jellyfin server.
Btw. I don't shut the server down or anything during the backup but it still worked lol
