    I don’t run Jellyfin, but I’ve considered it. From what I understand, you have to set up a reverse proxy or something like Tailscale in order to access it remotely. Doing that safely can take a bit of learning, but the only part that could cost money is getting a domain name.

      Doing it safely is pretty simple.

      Install Tailscale at both ends. Done.

      It’s a fully encrypted mesh VPN.

      If you need access without the TS client on the other end, that takes a little more work. Then you need to enable the Funnel option.
