Until jellyfin can be 1 click accessed from anywhere securely over clear net it’s not a replacement.

It can be, speaking from extensive personal experience. I followed their Reverse Proxy guides, now my tech-illiterate friends access my server via a duckdns url.

Setting up a reverse proxy and dynamic domain is not one click. Jellyfin has also yet to resolve the unsecured api so I wouldn’t expose it on the clear

  Setting up a reverse proxy and dynamic domain is not one click
  
  Maybe not for the server administrator, but for users, it’s mega easy. Download Jellyfin app on TV. Enter URL for server. Login like a normal streaming service. Done. As far as I know, Plex requires these same steps, so if Plex works for your 89 year old grandparents, Jellyfin would as well.

  In what way is the API insecure? What types of attacks are you concerned about?
