Dude how the hell am I supposed to walk my mom through setting up tailscale on her Roku?
And what if you have multiple friends all sharing each others libraries?
This is not a feasible solution let alone a “very easy” one.
Comment on That's all folks, Plex is starting to charge for sharing

I was thinking a computer! Multiple people can connect to your tailscale and jellyfin at once. That’s not so much an issue.

You completely ignored his question, Tailscale is not a valid solution for your mom’s Roku

“Very easy” assuming you aren’t trying to share with non-technical people or your elderly parents.

I’ve walked them through using tailscale.

How do I install it on my mom’s Chromecast or my sister’s LG TV?

Also Wireguard, which is what Tailscale uses.

Yeah, they both do. That’s a lot more manual though.

Completely unreasonable to need to walk people through this. It’s OK to say jellyfin can’t do remote access.

Well, I never said it did out of the box. I was giving people the example of how I did it, in case they wanted an easy option for PCs. No offence meant, my friend.

You’re replying to a message that literally says that, so it makes you sound like you think Tailscale is somewhat integrated into Jellyfin, because the message originally said exactly that you needed a third party app to solve this issue in Jellyfin

Mate chill, I already said I misunderstood.
