You have a couple options.
The easy route is to setup Tailscale. It's as peer-to-peer VPN app (uses Wireguard). It doesn't require setting up certs or opening up your Jellyfin to the Internet, if that bothers you, or getting a domain name. This is a good solution if all the devices you watch on remotely can install the Tailscale client.
If you have remote devices that can't install Tailscale, like a Roku TV at a friends house, this option is not viable. You would need to go through the reverse proxy setup process and get certs.
