Same boat. I used to run my own DLNA servers but found less and devices with good clients, so eventually migrated to Plex, but I run a local Plex server off of my Debian based NAS box. Not much power for transcoding, etc. but good enough for most uses, and seemingly everything under the sun has a Plex client these days. I don't use mine much either, only for the occasional thing I run into that I can't easily stream.
