I can't say that I have. I've never used lidarr though so if there is an issue with that I'm not the person to ask.
I find Plex to be pretty bullet proof, and I have family scattered all over the US, and one in Europe, who all use my server and we don't run into many issues. Very occasionally I'll get a message something isn't working and just restarting Plex always seems to fix it. I like self hosting but I'm not any sort of tech wizard. If it took a lot of work to maintain or had a lot of problems with multiple users I'd probably just abandon it, but I've been running it for the better part of 15 years now and it's pretty solid/dummy proof in my experience.
