Yeah, I've got one of those too. Plex is great.
ITT: Have you heard the good news about our lord and saviour, Jellyfin?
Jellyfin is a bitch to get working outside my network. I don't get how Plex made it so easy
really? I never had an issue with just sticking it behind a reverse proxy, doing some port forwarding, and setting an apex domain record, that was it. curious what wasn't working for you?
The number of people I've come across that are absolutely baffled by the concept of port forwarding....
Then you add CGNAT ontop and things can get really complicated for someone unfamiliar.
...............do what now?

Lol
Plex operates a service on their end that mostly covers you if you fuck up the network routing. It's probably the least user friendly part of the setup, so kind of a big deal.
