    I thought Jellyfin was just a self-hosted client/server for the media you already possess..? Are you just being tongue-in-cheek and I'm whooshing a ref to #SailingTheHighSeas, or am I missing something about Jellyfin?

    Just to be clear, you can (and many do) use jellyfin to just access the stuff you own. It's a convenient way to always have all your DVD/br available. And music library. And eBooks.

    High seas need not be involved.

    I need to setup a Jellyfin for my media. Is it easy to stream it across the Internet, I'm worried about opening myself up to hackers or something.

    I don't open mine up to the internet. Instead I set up a wireguard vpn, and any time my devices are not on my home network they autoconnect to wireguard, and then have access to jellyfin and other services I host internally.

    This generally works well unless I want to share my jellyfin with a friend or try to airplay to a TV outside of my network.

    As long as you use something like fail2ban you should be okay. If you really want to go hard there are things like authentik or even vlans to keep your important stuff separate from exposed services.

    I've been using a jellyfin server with SWAG on an unraid server for years with a few friends with 0 issues.
