Since everyone hates Plex here apparently here's a positive feedback. I bought the lifetime pass for $90 a few years ago and didn't even use it that much at first. I just launched Plex Server from my MacBook from time to time to watch movies on my TV that were not available on Netflix, Prime Video or Disney+ (I subscribed to all three), because it was apparently the easiest way to watch a movie on TV from a laptop without using an HDMI cable.

With time passing and the pricing of 3 platforms becoming more and more ridiculous for less and less convenience, I completely migrated to Plex 2 years ago. It's been working flawlessly so far. The UX is not perfect but good enough, it syncs with my phone and iPad, I can download episodes in advance when traveling, I can share access with friends easily... Probably the best $90 I've ever spent for a lifetime pass.

Maybe Jellyfin or Emby would work just as well, I honestly don't know. But Plex is fine.

Given your limited requirements, both Jellyfin and Emby would be perfect replacements for you (should you wish to change).

Plex is dead simple to setup (minus maybe GPU passthrough to a container), Jellyfin and Emby are pretty simple too though.

Plex is avaliable on plenty of devices, including Xbox's and Non-Google TVs, which allows pretty easy accessibility.

Even the GPU passthrough is simple these days in Docker. For 99 percent of people its one extra line in a Docker compose file or one extra arg passed to docker run... etc.
