  Nginx webserver and reverse proxy with php support and a built-in Certbot (Let's Encrypt) client. It also contains fail2ban for intrusion prevention.

  

Honestly, it's pretty easy to setup an automated service to monitor, update DynDNS when IP changes and even generate and renew a SSL certs to secure WAN access. All free. https://docs.linuxserver.io/general/swag

  The aim is to share knowledge and information about building an open-source media server.

Unraid has a lot of useful home server features and is relatively easy to get going. I think the price is reasonable for what you get. Depending on your experience level, there is a potentially steep learning curve to a DIY solution that includes MergerFS, which is just one piece of the DIY media server puzzle. My journey started with unraid (many, many years ago!) --> Synology --> DIY with Debian. It's very satisfying to have full control over everything with most things being open source but it's not for everyone. I would suggest taking a look at Perfect Media Server if you're interested in making that jump

  Dim, a media manager fueled by dark forces.

  

From Jellyfin to Olaris and even DIM, there is a rise in media server options, one day soon Plex will have a serious competitor and I can see a lot of people, myself included, moving to one of these competitors.
