This is maybe a little paranoid but... i have a jellyfin server that i let some family members use. one of them intends to use an app for apple tv, which i think is swiftfin or something like that. i am a bit skeptical about smart-TVs and the data they phone home with, so i was wondering if there is any chance that i could be compromised due to the linux isos i host on jellyfin due to some sneaky smart-TV stuff?

I'm a little late to the party, but a fairly easy way to combat that fear is to install Tailscale (free) on your server and have them do the same on the AppleTV. It's supported from version 17 I believe. It uses Wireguard to encrypt so your ISP won't see squat.

I'm hosting a server for friends and family too and I refuse to open ports for it. It works super well and is fairly easy to setup.
