Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

So i’ve been trying to set this up this exact thing for the past few weeks - tried all manner of different Nginx/Tailscale/VPS/Traefik/Wireguard/Authelia combos, but to no avail
I was lost in the maze
However, I realised that it was literally as simple as setting up a CloudFlare Tunnel on my particular local network I wanted exposed (in my case, the Docker network that runs the JellyFin container) and then linking that domain/ip:port within CloudFlare’s Zero Trust dashboard
Cloudflare then proxies all requests to your public domain/route to your locally hosted service, all without exposing your private IP, all without exposing any ports on your router, and everything is encrypted with HTTPS by default
And you can even set up what looks like pretty robust authentication (2FA, limited to only certain emails, etc) for your tunnel
Not sure what your use case is, but as mine is shared with only me and my partner, this worked like a charm
CloudFlare tunnel with Zero Trust, plus their bot and abuse blocking. Users can get in with the right oauth, plus only allowed from the countries I know they're in. Then just their username and password on jellyfin.
just run wireguard on the jelly server..
My users aren't going to figure that out.
they don't have to figure it out, you are the one running it
They'd have to connect to it, and possibly reconnect. That aspect is the issue.
~~Jellyfin is secure by default, as long as you have https. Just chose a secure password~~
