So long story short here: I'm using AI to write this Nginx Proxy Manager advanced config for Jellyfin because I've been having lots of issues with videos starting and stopping. Am I stupid? Any advice would be welcome!

it’s not stupid. i have pretty successfully done some NixOS work flying basically blind with an LLM guiding the way.

ask follow up questions. “can you show me in the docs where this is defined”, “why did you add this line here”, etc
you’re going to have to understand this config eventually. the LLM will start to get confused if you’re trying to squash a weird bug and you’re just chastising it. it will always tell you you’re right even when you aren’t.
document everything with comments and in git
Caddy is better :P
