Assuming the user will not be connecting over vpn, but is both remote and non-technical, how would you expose Jellyfin to them securely?

I’ve got a firewall. I also have two managed switches to route the VLANs that I’ll be setting up in the coming days. I’ve got a handful of guides I’ve visited and will be revisiting in order to do it the way I want, which I believe will be a reasonable level of security. Acknowledging that you were just trying to be a friendly neighbor, does this plan still hold up to your wisdom thus far?
Yes, that does indeed sound like you have all the stuff necessary to make this work.
In my home network this wouldn’t work, as I’m running all my stuff in containers on multi-purpose servers, and therefore I can’t really split things per VLAN. Most other people in the homelab/self host community also use their servers for multiple purposes at the same time, so VLANs alone often doesn’t cut it.
Thanks. I’ve been doing a lot of research, and the beginning of it took a while to stick, so it’s good to hear I’m not a complete idiot. What “multiple purposes” are you referring to that would make the VLAN setup less effective? Because I’ll acknowledge that this could lead to two devices being completely compromised if I’m breached, but that will only cost me time to get set back up, as opposed to compromising personal devices on the main VLAN.
