Honest question, because I know multiple people who are not looking to jump ship since they already have the Plex Pass.

Authentik is your friend fam. Might take a minute or two to get it spun up the way you want, but then you can support using a single IdP (that you control) for all your hosted stuff (except Plex). If you want MFA you'll have to set it up differently than I, I just use an LDAP lookup but it works great.

I could do that, but going "hey make an account here on this thing that you have no clue what is that I host and then you can use that to log in to my media server" is still too weird and not normal for a normie.

I also think it's a complete nogo until jellyfin has native support for it.
