Assuming the user will not be connecting over vpn, but is both remote and non-technical, how would you expose Jellyfin to them securely?

How do you get apps through something like that? Do you have to open your browser and hit the URL periodically to handle auth there and it just remembers your IP?
You can set pangolin to allow access to an entire resource or just certain paths without the front auth, instead relying on the built in auth.
Your random plex/emby/jellyfin server isn’t going to be a huge target and the built in auth is good enough for the limited access your media system should have.
Wait so if you’re gonna allow access without authentication then why bother putting pangolin in front of jellyfin? Does it help in some other kind of way? I don’t really get how it helps without interfering with apps accessing jellyfin.
