You could just get a domain and set up a reverse proxy. Or use Cloudflare tunnels.
The first one, yes. That's what I do. But IIRC hosting media via cloudflare tunnels goes against the TOC and they reserve the right to ban users over it
All possible, but currently I have lifetime Plex pass and just need to share with people I want to share with. No extra config. Once Jellyfin can do that or something similar, I'll look at jumping ship. Until then, the juice isn't worth the squeeze.
Once Jellyfin does that then it'll be time to look at jumping ship to something else, because that'll be the indication that Jellyfin is going down the same road as Plex.
Fair enough. I doubt Jellyfin will ever offer something like that. Its designed to be completely self hosted and not rely on a central server, which I dont see changing.
