Comment on Is they're an easy way to make my Jellyfin accessible outside of my home network
irmadlad@lemmy.world 7 hours ago Well, to cut through the FUD, we’ll have to look at the operative words which are: ‘disproportionate percentage of pictures, audio files, or other large files’. It’s not saying, you can’t stream a video or some audio, or look at your pictures. So, yeah, I think I’m good, and if it does happen, drop back to option 2. No biggie.
They explicitly mention non-legal content.
Immich? Safe (we are not looking at 20GB pictures/videos)
Static pages from containers? Should be safe
Jellyfin/Plex? Walking the line on getting banned.
Cloudflare is replacable but it will be heavily annoying to do so.
And I’d rather not do it unprepared.
I don’t run JF or any parts of the *arr stack, so legal/shady video content isn’t a concern. I do stream my private/physical audio collection via Navidrome I’ve been amassing for decades all converted out to flac. I mean, from Cloudflare’s standpoint, I think it’s reasonable and understandable.
Same thing.
Copyrighted media your ripped and am streaming.
My point is that I think Cloudflare is ok with personal use, but if you are heavily hammering them on the daily, it would probably be an issue. It hasn’t been an issue to date, and I’ve been running with Cloudflare for quite a while. You do bring up some good points/concerns, and it’s something every user should consider before hitching their wagon to Cloudflare. It is a free tier after all, but not unlimited.
