    Yup already addressed this in another thread.

    You have to take on supporting them now… supporting family is just like loaning money to family… or renting to family… or anything else with family. Stressful.

    But even silly problems like what happens when their wireguarded phone connect to the wireguarded home wifi vpn… I can’t imagine that it wouldn’t cause problems that you’re going to get blamed for.

    But even then this is still jellyfins problem. It’s clear the platform is MEANT to be public, otherwise there would be some integration with these other features that just don’t exist.

      I’ve got no real care for jellyfin one way or another, just sharing that there’s ways to make the network obey.

      I think giving people access to my media server is asking for too much trouble personally. Now you’re dealing with forgotten passwords, people using your bandwidth at weird hours, and you basically become the media fairy, responsible for finding whatever it is people want, and then dealing with their issues when their device can’t codec at it for whatever janky reason.

      I’m good at setting boundaries with family so it’s not stressful, just more annoying than I want to deal with.
