Does TailScale make this easier or nah?
Comment on Looking to offload Plex from my gaming PC

Very easy server-wise. But you may neeed to help your family member/friend with the initial set up on the client, if they are not so tech-savy.

From my limited testing of tailscale a while back, I don’t see any reason it wouldn’t work. Saw no reason to switch from my wireguard setup.

Can confirm it works. I have jf over tailscale.
I use my own domain but could be done using tailscale urls if you dont want to deal with certificates, split horizon dns, etc.
gdbjr@piefed.social 4 hours ago The Jellyfin clients for Apple TV are not very good in my opinion and use case. Thankfully there are a lot more than there used to be 6 months ago. But, at least for me, they are lacking in features. I keep trying to them every so often hoping they have improved so I can finally make thr switch.

On the Apple tv just use infuse. Sure it sucks paying for an app, but it works.

I would never be doing that, so I’m sold on it then. It’s basically just my backup movie/TV hub for my LAN.

Definitely suggested then, you’re also going to get drastically more features. If you remember a time when Plex plugins were available - its that. And more flexible.
Any intel-based chipset past 6th gen or so will be ok, 7+ recommended, 10th+ for AV1. If you aren’t doing any transcoding, just about anything will work include a pi.
