Hi Folks!
Hopefully I'm posting this in the right sub, apologies if not. Basically, I currently have a very very low tech Plex server running in my apartment (Dell 3240 Compact running Debian with 12TB of external dumb storage) and would like to expand this to be a little more all encompassing.
I'd like to have a database setup that contains my Plex Server stuff (How hard would it be to swap to Jellyfin?), all of my books, music, and a bunch of informational YouTube videos that I've downloaded (example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Et5PPMYuOc8). My goal is to have it setup so that all of these things are accessible via any device on my local network, even if my internet is down.
Optionally, I'm also interested in a front end that maybe brings a lot of this together and makes it searchable and looking nicer? I know Plex can technically handle the music and audiobooks, but I don't love the way it handles it. I'm not opposed to just navigating a regular file system type thing for that stuff, but if you guys know of anything that would accomplish that I'm all ears! Thanks!

PS - Just had this thought, is it difficult to scan paper books into PDFs? Maybe that's overkill
