You’re exposing your jellyfin instance to a single IP, your VPS. That’s what a reverse proxy is.
You block all communication from any IP but local, and your VPS IP from jellyfin, and forward web traffic from your VPS to your jellyfin instance. It’s not the same as exposing your jellyfin instance directly. Not sure why I have to explain that…but here we are, I guess.
