Combine with a $5 VPS and nginix reverse proxy to make this true for any device, even ones without tailscale!

I’d not put Jellyfin on a public IP, even indirectly. I’d be surprised if it’s not full of exploits.

  • I whitelist my friends IP blocks, seems to work well enough.

    No way in hell I'm convincing them to install tailscale or similar on their TV / router.

  • There was just another one recently actually. It was the final straw that convinced me to stop making my Jellyfin server publicly accessible (for my family abroad) and move to a VPN based solution instead (WireGuard or Tailscale I haven’t set it up yet).
