I run Kavita on my TrueNAS Scale setup. I can't really recommend it, but there's not a lot of similar manga/comic self hosting servers out there.
It doesn't have a feature to auto download manga though. It also won't organize manga based on folder structure - it only goes by file name, which annoys me to no end since I have my library organized for use with Tachiyomi on my phone/tablet.
I haven't touched or looked at anything manga-related in a while, but when I was looking at manga hosting solutions, I settled on Mango. If I remember correctly, I chose it specifically because it organizes based on the file/folder structure, including nested folders. So I can manually name and organize the files(my preference, as I never like the way any automated system does it), drop said files into the library folder, run a scan in Mango, and I'm good. Also has 3rd party plugins for downloads(a lot of which are hentai-related though, if I recall).

What do you use for automated manga downloads? I'll probably have to stick with FMD2, but development seems to be a bit slow
I don't really have any automated manga download processes. I use Neko on my phone and tablet to download new chapters from Mangadex automatically. My manga library in Kavita is all completed series that I grab via torrents.
