Those are two big points though, especially the latter. At least for people concerned with selfhosting their services.
It's just that I only read manga on my phone anyway (even though that might be because it's not synced between devices) and I've never had the issue that an online source went offline. I just thought that maybe there are other reasons, like how you can get way better quality when you self host something like Jellyfin for movies and shows.
I believe Tachiyomi was meant to download the manga and view it on Android?
I forgot what Komga was, is it a downloader?

Correct

Similar to something like plex, jellyfin, kavita, etc. Its basically a manga media server. Not a Downloader
For downloading, I ended up trying out "kaizoku," which is unfortunately no longer maintained. Acts as a frontend for a service called "mangal," which seems to no longer be maintained as well... Does the job for some websites at least.
As someone who was also recently looking for a multi device alternative for mihon/tachiyomi, I highly recommend Suwayomi. It's even somewhat compatible with Mihon. It can use the same extension repos and you can restore Mihon backups in Suwayomi, which makes the migration pretty smooth.
Assuming you’re talking about the OPDS server built in to komga, it worked great for me with Panels… until it didn’t. When my library got large enough, say 500gb or so, OPDS didn’t seem to be able to work as well as just pulling up the browser.
