Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

I assume you have a dynamic ip. what I did for that scenario: setup a dyndns hostname somewhere, configure a subdomain (e.g. jellyfin.example.com) with a cname dns record pointing to the dyndns hostname. you will have to setup updating of the dyndns hostname, this can be done in the fritz box and port forwarding to your jellyfin pc.
IPv6 may also "just work" nowadays, too, especially if the aim is to connect from mobile or other consumer networks. Corporate environments are still hit & mostly miss.
you mean without a dynamic hostname in between? but then you would still need to know about a changed prefix, wouldn't you?
Dynamic DNS is probably still required, unless his ISP issues dedicated or very long term IPv6 leases.
