I have a similar use-case.

What I did for the VPN was to use Wireguard. I configured it using wg-easy, and it’s, well, very easy. What your need to do is:

  1. Install wg-easy via Docker.
  2. Configure it and create a profile.
  3. Open ports in your router to allow port-forwarding the Wireguard tunnel.
  4. (Optional). Install a Wireguard client on your cellphone. I use “WG Tunnel”, a FOSS client. Note that the author of the app is a bit of a religious nut, If you care about that kind of stuff.
  5. Scan the profile QR generated in wg-easy on your WG Tunnel.
  6. Open Navidrome/Jellyfin, and done :)

Let me know If you have any questions, glad to help.
