    I've been at this for hours with no success. I've read forums, watched videos and still can't get a remote connection.

    Jellyfin and Tailscale installed on a mini PC running Linux mint. Not in a container as they are the only programs I'll be using.

    Jellyfin all setup no issues and on the LAN I can connect no issues and watch whatever.

    It's the remote access that just doesn't work. I'm using my Pixel 9 with Jellyfin and Tailscale installed to test the connection.

    Tailscale installed and setup no issues on the mini PC and I see it and my phone are both connected. 

    I've deleted any other VPN's on my phone. Linux mint is a fresh install.

    I have Allow remote connections enabled and added a bunch of ip addresses, whitelisted.

    I save and restart the server each time I make a change

    When I put any of those addresses in the Jellyfin app none of them connect.

    I'm lost as to what to do next. I need help!!

    EDIT: Should the Jellyfin server be listed under 'Machines" in Tailscale?
