Comment on Improve very slow library scans on Jellyfin 10.11 / 12 on spinning media
GoatSynagogue@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoThat poster specifically said if you open jellyfin up to the internet ……
Which Plex does by default. He doesn’t understand that running Plex at home doesn’t open itself up to the Internet. I specifically referenced a CVE that let hackers into your home if you ran Plex.
His claim that securing Jellyfin with an encrypted tunnel does nothing is false.
He never claimed that in the comment you replied to.
Plex doesn’t open a port to the internet at large, unsecured no less, like jellyfin does.
You obviously don’t use Plex to claim it doesn’t need an open port for remote access:
…plex.tv/…/201543147-what-network-ports-do-i-need…
I already posted a CVE that allowed hackers access to a Plex server running at home.
OK so you don’t understand networking, don’t understand how Plex works, don’t understand how that CVE does nothing of the sort, and have poor reading comprehension skills.
I’d hate to be your poor server.
Reading comprehension and Jellyfin stanning don’t go well together

He said an encrypted tunnel does nothing. I don’t even run Jellyfin but that statement is false.
An encrypted tunnel and a reverse proxy are Ber different things. He (I) never talked about a tunnel and neither did the comment I (he) responded to

The reason to run the reverse proxy with Jellyfin is for the encryption. It’s written in the documentation that way. It’s why I still run Plex. I never finished getting through their steps to get the reverse proxy setup for the encryption.
It’s like I said you use a car to go to work and you reply AKSUALLY a car runs on TIRES. The OP didn’t say CAR.
