buy your own domain name for cheap (like $10-$30 USD/year) and setup your A records (and CNAME records if you want) in the hosted DNS section.

Does it matter if your domain is on shared hosting already? Like, I’ve got kaitco.net, so I should be able to set up jellyfin.kaitco.net and the A and/or CNAME in the hosted DNS? Or, would I need to purchase a new one that’s not already hosted on any server already?

Thank you for answering my asinine questions about this btw 😅

It's perfectly fine to use a subdomain of kaitco.net 😉 Happy to help, I've been doing this for years.
