    Honestly if you’re a smaller server, or anywhere decent at tinkering Jellyfin is the better product at this point

      I tried switching and I’ll try again. But getting https reverse proxy was a lot of moving parts that I never got working.

      The instructions were a long chain of learning:

      Install ngnx for reverse proxy

      Ngnx only available as docker

      Install docker

      Docker not working because I don’t understand it.

      Install podman

      Give up and go back to 3d printing where I have a backlog of stuff that actually needs to be done.

          Can a random person (my mother in law and other non techie family) connect to my tailscaled jellyfin using a Roku or AppleTV? I thought tailscale needs a wireguard client.

            Well they can if those tvs allow the tailscale app to be installed. If not then Walmart sells very cheap ONN 4K boxes for like 20 bucks and then the tailscale and jellyfin apps can be installed on that.
