But he updated to say he misspoke, he meant p2p

I agree with this. But also, it’s hard to beat the convenience of music streaming. It’s getting more expensive, which is sad, but for awhile there it worked great. Almost any artist or music you wanted, just, available.

Thanks! Someone else said video streaming is against their TOS, so I may have shot myself in the foot

For a reverse proxy, would cloudfare be sufficient?

This is what everyone always says, and yeah, for most people this is probably the most secure and easiest option. But for me it’s too much hassle for my family, too restrictive, and not at all what I’m looking for.

However in this thread I’ve learned that JF supports https, so if done carefully and properly, I can expose it to the Internet directly, which is what I plan to do. Eventually. Plex is still easier for now.

Thanks, you and others in this thread are the first people to ever tell me about this.

Everyone is always saying tailscale, but that’s too complicated and restrictive for my family.

I’m not afraid of port forwarding and dynamic DNS, I’ve played with it before. My main concern is just doing it safely, not exposing something to the Internet that wasn’t designed to be exposed. Security risk, and all that.

Obviously a VPN is the safest way. But as long as JF is reasonably robust and designed to be exposed, I’m happy with that. I just literally didn’t know it was designed that way.

Thanks!

The only problem is properly exposing jellyfin to the Internet. How do you do it?

I’m not planning on leaving Plex anytime soon. But I did plan on setting up jellyfin in parallel to play with it and learn about it. But this stopped me in my tracks.

I don’t want my family to need to VPN into my network. Plex, for as frustrating as it is in many ways, just works. And it works on so much stuff.
