Tailscale is, as far as I know, the standard way most people access Jellyfin from away from home. I didn’t come up with “use tailscale” by myself. Somebody at one point told me to do this too.
Yes for yourself on a device that supports it but that doesn’t address what my post stated.
The devices that I listed in my post are still going to run to the same problem in that sense that you’re not going to be able to run tailscale on them either.
It is incredibly difficult to get jelljfin ypen into your friends or your parents or grandparents house without considerable setup and maintenance over time.
Just put it behind a proxy and require a user cert? Bit of a burdon on the client side, admittedly
And effectively none of the Jellyfin clients support this…
So that’s not going to work anyways on your friend’s TV or their Xbox or their Roku or something else like that.
meh, how can that be :-( I’m still in the process of setting things up with jellyfin, didnt know…
