  That’s fine for your personal remote access but that doesn’t help your 80 year old mother in law watch videos of the grandchildren on a Roku.

    Slap a vpn on her computer or but a shitty dell from good will. Point the Roku at that and forward the traffic…?

    Like this is a solvable setup and forget about it for the next 5 years. Sort of set up.

    Been thinking of throwing together a set top box with everything made up for my grandfather so he can stream stuff from my jellyfin setup.

    I just need to find an ezpz enough to use frontend.

  WG works for us, but isn’t scalable once it comes to sharing. It would provide too much friction for a lot of people

    It’s really not. If people are too lazy to install one VPN app and import the tunnel config, then they can pay for paid streaming instead.

    I manage it with netbird.

    Just have em install netbird, if it’s on they can connect to my website. If it’s off they can’t.

    It’s literally three steps for each person, there’s ways to make this easy. It just requires the host to put in the leg work
