Sounds like you need a Web domain, and then to modify the DNS record to point to your local server. You'll want to run a Web server application on the local server to send the streams to users making HTTP requests, typically Apache as it's free.

A very long time ago I used to do this. Then one day a photo I had uploaded went a little viral and everything ground to a halt. Quite disappointing.

To be direct, it doesn't sound like you have the fundamentals to consider running a public web server from your home. And generally people that do, would use a commercial host instead.

OK. Riddle me this.
I have a permanent Plex server but I'd like to use it to provide Hot Links to forums. Instead of using web photo hosting for photo links, I'd like to use the server.
All Goggles just point me back to web-based hotlinking.
So the idea is to use the server and allow it to do the same as web versions (Flickr, Google Photos, Imgur) but the images are local.
