Single-binary php-capable webserver?
I was looking for an alternative to FileBrowser and found IFM. My target system neihter has PHP nor a webserver installed, so the single-binary FileBrowser does the job quite well. It's for single-user home use in a very special usecase and I want as small a footprint as possible.

Looking for file server recommendations
I have already found something that more or less fits my needs - IFM but after tests, it unfortunately tends to crush randomly, project doesn't seem to be maintained anymore, so I'm afraid, that this is not an option for a long run.

Anyone know what this is? I stumbled upon this website which seems to be some kind of file index with tree browser and search functionality. Is this an app I can install or some custom build solution?

Media server upgrade alternatives
I use Jellyfin too. There doesn't seem to be a way to upload through the browser that I can see, but you can always pair it with something like Gossa (very minimal) or SeaFile (haven't used personally, but looks good)
