On a side note: you can remotely access any service running on home network via Tailscale[1] / Cloudflare Tunnel. Your services are never exposed on Internet. Moreover, you don't need to rely on Plex for that.

Tailscale is going public, so I don't really trust them anymore. I used Cloudflare tunnels for a while, but I strongly dislike being dependent on them for accessing my own network, and I don't like how they recently clamped down on "anti-piracy". There are some legitimate sites I still can't access (dirtbike parts and whatnot) because Cloudflare straight up blocks access to them.

Go with pangolin. You can easily host the control layer either on a cheap vps or your own internet exposed server. Same features as tailscale although with a bit more complexity.

Even if the source code is open?

Android is open source and look what Google is trying to do with that.
