Yes, and if that falls within your risk tolerance it’s rather easy to set up.
Most of the people in the discussion here don’t want to open a port to the internet.
To be fair Plex also requires open ports (or worse upnp) to remotly stream at full quality, without transcoding.
Oh, 100%. I was just trying to sum up the feelings in here.
Its just a pain in the ass to manage at home and easy to leave your ass open for attacks.
It’s just another attack surface. Threat tolerance is up to each person.
I found it annoying at first when I started because I didnt know about any management tools. I was updating the firewall rules everywhere myself to allow each remote IP at the router and machine level lol
Oooof, yeah that would suck.
