Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.
-
No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

Ease of use for my users across multiple platforms with minimal tech knowledge on their end. I'm sharing my library with ranges from 12yo to 70. I need it to "just work" and it does that perfectly.
Did you try Jellyfin? I've had success with Jellyfin once I've been the one setting up the TV app, etc. It did just work, because users found it very simple in comparison to Plex.
I use both at home, mostly plex though and I have about a dozen people who watch remotely and keeping the remote access private and secure I'm not putting jellyfin behind a public reverse proxy and not feasible to setup wire guard for a dozen people across 4 states and troubleshooting those when Plex does all that for me and allows them to manage and reset their password without my intervention
