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 used to do all the things mentioned here. Now, I just use Wireguard. If a family member wants to use a service, they need Wireguard. If they don't want to install it, they dont get the service.

    I started my homelab with a couple exposed services, but frankly the security upkeep and networking headaches weren't worth the effort when 99% of this server's usage is at home anyway.

    I've considered going the Pangolin route to expose a handful of things for family but even that's just way too much effort for very little added value (plus moving my reverse proxy to a VPS doesn't sound ideal in case the internet here goes down).

    Getting 2 or 3 extra folks on to wireguard as necessary is just much easier.
