I feel like I've wasted my time with jellyfin

This is another tutorial on how to acces your JF outside your LAN. Haven't watched it all yet but another bit to research.

Thank you for your reply guys. Really appreciate it.
My setup is a mini pc running Linux Mint which I just have Jellyfin and tailscale installed. I have a share to a Synology NAS that I'm now going to use as storage. The NAS is also setup to download from a seedbox that I have. The NAS is 8 years old so instead of upgrading it, I decided to get the mini pc as a server that could transcode if needed. 

I really don't know what level of security I need. I mean there's nothing on the server or NAS other than my media files.

I'll watch the videos suggested and decide. As long as there's a guide to follow I have no problems with using terminal and command line

Will update. Thanks again.
