Definitely.

But I think more than copium it's them understanding their users. It's advice for people that will figure out how to run Jellyfin but won't stay on top of updates, setup a waf, use a firewall/reverseproxy to limit access, etc. There are surely a lot of those that just one clicked an installer etc and for them it's good advice.

    that's fair, does it not have any kind of encryption by default?

    Standard TLS, I think, but what else would you need?

    None really, just wondering what the issue with opening it up is if it has TLS? In 10+ years I've never had my Plex server compromised and it just uses TLS. I do change the default port but that's it.

    Plex logins go through their login server so you'll also have login throttling and probably other bot protections.
