Running a TrueNAS Scale server with Jellyfin and planning to add Nextcloud. How would I be able to access these services from outside my network? I have heard portforwarding is unsafe and a VPN seems inconvenient to me.

I’ve heard that steaming video is against ToS for tunnels, but I’ve not been able to confirm this.
But man, cloudflare tunnels are so cool. They are game changer if your behind a cgNAT or can’t port forward for some reason. And they are even useful if you can port forward. Cloudflare cacheing and ddos protection, and your IP is not exposed.
Beautiful.
I don’t think it is explicitly against the ToS any longer, although it used to be from what I can gather. There is no longer a section 2.8 here but it does state in section 2.7:
So as long as you either only host original content or your media server requires login and is not open to the public then I don’t think you’d have any issues.
I actually use a Cloudflare Tunnel in this way to serve a Jellyfin docker container and have not had any issues. I also disabled Cloudflare caching though for the subdomain that Jellyfin is served from, in order to be sure Cloudflare wasn’t caching that media either.
