I've got a mini pc which is running always and another one which consumes a lot more power for e.g. jellyfin.

Can I configure it such that the jellyfin server only boots if I connect to it? E.g. I try to connect to jellyfin.y.com and then the server boots because the mini pc tries to connect to it.

I already figured out how to let it sleep automatically as soon as nobody is watching.

Edit: can I add the magic package to the reverse proxy?

Basically yeah, though other solutions may be easier or more integrated. Using systemd sockets is especially useful if you want to start a service on the local server that is always on, with a service that uses a lot of resources in the background without other user interaction
