I have docker installed, but only have a vague idea of how it works.

Back in the day, I would just port forward, but even then, I would need a static IP somehow.

I have heard a reverse proxy is an option, but that is an entirely new topic to me.

Surely there is an easy way to access Jellyfin outside of my home network that I’m just missing.

*Edit: I am blown away by all the help and support! I currently have tailscale running, and I’m in the process of purchasing a domain.

Thanks everyone!

    Nah, I’m just confused about if this community is about asking the same question over and over or not. maybe it’s about sharing AI generated slop projects instead? nah couldn’t be that either. I know! it has to be the community to shit on anyone who uses Plex!

    Did your mom ever tell you if you have nothing nice to say, don’t say it at all?

    she did, but then again look at where that got us in the world today.

    I bet you don’t even know what the OSI model is.

      Lol the OSI model? Weird flex. I am a senior network engineer by trade and manage global routing and security for large companies, so I am definitely familiar.

        not a flex, quite the opposite.

        I’ve met numerous devs and engineers that didn’t. knowing OSI and TCP/IP should be the bare minimum to work in service development/admin.
