The best is pretty subjective and partially relies on what you need.

Keycloak is one of the most feature complete ones I think.

I've used authelia before and liked it, but it had a very bare UI and everything was done through config files which forced redeploys on changes. It wasn't ideal for me.

I'm currently trying out voidauth. It's got some more Ui features compared to authelia and can apparently also simulate some Active Directory queries to forward your users to third party tools for provisioning ( unless I saw that wrong, I haven't tested any yet ).

Authentik looked nice, but I haven't gotten around to checking that one out yet.
