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.

That's pretty much exactly what I have done. I've hosted Plex, and Matrix in the past. Plex I will host in the future but Matrix was too much for me to host on my own, but the experience of setting it up myself was definitely worth it.
I recommend checking out Jellyfin instead of Plex. Open source, fully self hosted.
I'm definitely keeping my eye on Jellyfin. Basically waiting for the mobile/tv apps to have more of the features that I personally want, especially on devices like my AppleTV. But it's definitely a good project that I want to see improve.
@HReflex Have you tried using Swiftfin on the AppleTV? I also use Infuse and its been great with the family.

I haven't yet, but when I rebuild my homelab I'll probably install both Plex and Jellyfin and compare them and see which one I like more. Currently without either as the laptop I was using as a server I no longer trust to be stable
