Comment on How do I host Jellyfin in the most secure manner possible?

Your post is very confusing. You want to use it only locally (on your home), but it can’t be a local-only instance.
You want to e2ee everything, but fail to mention why. There is no reason to do that on your own network.
I do not know why you want to use a VPN and what you want to do with it. Where do you want to connect to?
What is the attack vector you’re worried about? Are there malicious entities on your network?

By “local-only” I meant on-device
Privacy and security.
Networks are not a trusted party in any capacity.
A VPN such as ProtonVPN or Mullvad VPN are used to displace trust from your ISP into your VPN provider and obscure your IP address while web browsing (among other benefits that I don’t utilize).
These are good questions but not ones I can answer briefly.

My short answer: you’re overthinking it way too hard and I think sticking that microSD-Card into the device you want to watch on is your best bet.
You’re chasing ghosts.

If you don’t trust the devices inside your own house, no amount of VPNs or e2ee are going to help.
If it’s entirely on your lan, your isp isn’t involved and a VPN is just adding unnecessary complications.
