What’s your go too (secure) method for casting over the internet with a Jellyfin server.

I’m wondering what to use and I’m pretty beginner at this

I was just trying to get a setup like this going yesterday. I used standard Wiregaurd and got that working between the VPS and home server, but I was trying to set up Caddy as a reverse proxy to direct the incoming traffic through the WG VPN to my services. I wasnt able to figure it out yesterday. Everyone online says Caddy is so simple, but I'm such a noob I just have no idea what it's doing or how to troubleshoot.

    I've also really struggled with Caddy despite everyone saying its so simple. I'm pretty new to all this, but I had better luck with Traefik - I now actually have a reverse proxy up and running correctly, which I haven't been able replicate with Caddy.

    Traefik labels make sense to me in a way Caddy does not.

    I appreciate this response. I'll try booting up traefik later.

    I think Caddy just abstracts things to such a great degree that if you dont already know what it's supposed to do, it's harder to learn what you're doing with it. I'm sure plenty of others have stepped right up and loved the "two line config" without already understanding the basics, but it's not clicking for me.
