I am looking to basically just transition to a small time, forever on, server to support my growing Plex footprint. I don’t need anything top of the line, and I’ve already crimped my lines to the room.

What’s the most cost effective way to go about this? Figured i would come to the pros.

Thanks!

      Very easy server-wise. But you may neeed to help your family member/friend with the initial set up on the client, if they are not so tech-savy.

      From my limited testing of tailscale a while back, I don’t see any reason it wouldn’t work. Saw no reason to switch from my wireguard setup.

        Can confirm it works. I have jf over tailscale.

        I use my own domain but could be done using tailscale urls if you dont want to deal with certificates, split horizon dns, etc.
