Nextcloud to replace Google drive/docs.
Jellyfin or plex for media.
The arrs to aquire media (if you have the patience).

Nextcloud news has become my preferred way to read many news sites.
Nextcloud music lets you stream from your server to your phone, and also lets you manage podcasts.
Nextcloud deck lets you manage tasks using kanban methods.
Nextcloud mail lets you access your mail from one spot.
There’s mastodon integration that shows your last few notifications and the last few posts on your timeline.
There’s a huge number of apps that can do a shocking number of tasks, in addition to being a Google drive replacement with as much disk space as you want to add.
