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.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Hmmm, i use a Synology NAS with Jellyfin installed and my family can use their Roku TVs without issue. I didn't realize Synology made a difference there
It totally depends on how you expose it to the outside world. If it's exposed just like it is, it works fine with every device. If you put an authentication before it (e.g. Authelia), it can only be accessed by browsers from outside the network. That being said, it's not recommended to expose Jellyfin directly, because there are a ton of security flaws. Best practice is to use a VPN
Weird.
If I nslookup my jellyfin URL it responds with an IP in my local IP range...
And it works both outside with a 2FA page and inside without...
Well I'm a Luddite so I'm probably exposing myself to miners or something
Better than exposing yourself to minors
I do this too but it only works on my home network not remotely.
