Reverse proxy works fine. There’s even a setting in Jellyfin to provide the proxy IP.
I doubt that, how would that work? You would need to give all your friends a VPN login into your local network for all of their devices, including TVs.
or your friend can setup VPN on his Router box.
But then all of his traffic goes through my internet. Unless he has a special high end router that can only route specific domains.

not necessarily always a VPN, but you can also use a reverse proxy like caddy or nginx where encryption and security are primary concerns instead of something non-essential like in jellyfin.
Their stance is actually that exposing it is fine
Frankly at this point, everything that is not explicitly fully public should be...
Unfortunately, yeah.
