I am setting up my NAS right now, and I need some suggestions for apps that I can run on my NAS or self-host.
I have seen some online articles, but they are too confusing because they list too many apps for each category.
I want backup apps for iOS, Android, Mac and Windows. (It would be great if they could back up automatically).
I want to sync my calendars and contacts.
I want to download media like TV shows and movies. (And music, too). “Of course, only legal obtained from the internet cough.”
I want apps that let me access my data from anywhere.
I saw this cool thing where you could use a Raspberry Pi to access your NAS bios from your PC.

Still gotta pay for guide data iirc. Has that changed?
An update for the Roku app was released 5 days ago which massively improves it (finally an OSD!). It’s getting there.
I use zap2xml or whatever it is. Simple script and crontab job and it’s worked without issue for near two years now I guess (since I initially configured it.) All free. I’m in the States so not sure if it’s location dependent or not.
Well not better, just cheaper.
I have them both running. The only thing Plex does better for me is remote access. Everything else like UI features, collections, series identication, and CPU usage has been simpler and better looking on Jellyfin.
Never used Plex, but if being open source is a feature Jellyfin is better than Plex.
Not requiring an external authentication server is the biggest drawback of Plex. I don’t want Plex to have my watch history and info about my media library.
With Findroid supporting the intro skip plugin I’m fine since I don’t need many platforms.
