Did you set up recurring searches for new episodes? Idk what it is set to be default but you have to set each show to do episode searches at a given interval.

I personally use fluent reader on my PC and phone. It’s the best one I’ve found so far.

Nextcloud is technically a solid product if your goal is to replace all the Google services. Personally I think it’s too heavy and I’ve had issues with using it vs using specialized apps for each service I’m replacing.

Here to say Seafile. I also don’t like nextcloud. I used pydio cells for a while but the windows sync client absolutely never worked for me. Seafile has been flawless for 2 months for me.

The epub reader needs work imo, however it’s more than usable and its what I use myself. Once the reader gets a few qol updates I’ll always recommend it over Cal-web or kavita.

Docker is a great choice with lots of good tutorials. I personally use podman since all my servers are now running Fedora server and podman is installed by default.

In my personal experience the jellyfin clients just aren’t as good. I play my whole jellyfin library through Kodi and everything direct plays without issue.

Support for ebooks is honestly pretty good. The reader is mid tier at best but it’ll only get better, hopefully.

I’ve stuck with Joplin for a while. Self hosting the sync server so it’s all saved privately.
