Self-host personal Mastodon instance and Plex server (lemmy.ca)

Are there any technical/performance reasons why I couldn’t create an instance for myself and host a Plex server off of the same machine at home?

I’m fairly new to self-hosting in general, so any insight would be appreciated!

EDIT: I completely forgot to mention that this would be for a Mastodon instance, not for Lemmy.

I run Lemmy, Plex, and a bunch of other services from a desktop in my basement. It works great. The Lemmy docker setup is a little finicky but works well once you get it.

My bad, I forgot to specify that I’d like to create a Mastodon instance, not Lemmy. Though it’s good to hear that people are having success.
