- encryptluks2 4y agoUmm. Tailscale isn't going to offer a lot in terms of protection unless you're using a semi-reputable seedbox.
- contravariant 4y agoYou mean privacy wise? Because security wise I don't see how giving a third party access to your home network is better.
- Jaepa 4y agoYou can use tailscale + WireGuard as well. It just takes a bit of extra configuring.
- skippyboxedhero 4y agoThe whole network situation with Plex is totally f'ed. I used Plex for years, must have been ten years ago, and it all worked (how Jellyfin works now). As soon as they did plex.tv/relay, it all stopped working. I run Plex in Docker with Tailscale on the host, I have never managed to get Plex working properly on the Tailscale network. I have checked, it seems you can put TVs onto Tailscale...so may try Jellyfin again. But I remember subtitles also being buggy and awful scrolling perf...if I can get it on my TV, I would switch back. Plex's networking is just over-engineered trash.
- graftak 4y agoWith Jellyfin I used: - a ngnix reverse proxy container - a free cloudflare account - a free .ga/.tk domain name Now I can access Jellyfin (among other apps) over cloudflare proxied https wherever I am. It works flawlessly, in Jellyfin I did make sure to: - disable user login tiles - require strong passwords - disable admin rights from outside of my LAN.
- blobevent 4y agoJust expose your host to their centralized software instead. Events arent logs.
