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.

    As an example of my parents’ non-tech savvyness they have put off updating apps on their phones for years because they don’t trust that the updates are secure. I just don’t have the energy to act as a constant line of tech support.
