    Simple reverse proxy like Nginx PM or Caddy before Jellyfin server and that’s it? Yes, it’s also good to have some DynDNS domain but those don’t cost a thing. Then CrowdSec plugin to keep the bots away and look you’re homelabbing like a pro! Next thing you know you are building this all on top of hypervisor like Proxmox, configuring GPU passthrough and whatnot.

      Vs “just install Plex on any NAS from its built in appstore” that’s like 42 steps too many for the regular user.
