Setting up auth before Jellyfin breaks clients. This is not an option. Edit: Unless you meant VPN like Tailscale, but then you'd have to install Tailscale too, which I don't want to explain to others.
Tailscale needs you to explicitly add your device to the tailnet, so it's some form of authentication.
Also, why don't you want to explain tailscale? It's really simple.
Good luck installing Tailscale on my friends' LG webOS TVs.
And making sure Tailscale auto launches on a FireTV stick is a pita too. Telling them to open Tailscale on each start is not an option.
