Is they're an easy way to make my Jellyfin accessible outside of my home network for free? (anarchist.nexus)

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!

They also only allow HTTP traffic for the free tier, which is another way they push you towards business tiers.

I don't think that's true. I'm pretty certain all of my domains are HTTPS only, but maybe that's because I own the domain? Does cloudflare offer free domain names for tunneled traffic?

    HTTPS traffic is still HTTP traffic. There’s just an encryption layer in there.

    And yes cloudflare absolutely supports https.
