Today we’re expanding the list of devices that can run Tailscale, bringing secure remote networking to the Apple TV. The newly released tvOS 17 offers support for VPNs, and we’re proud to say Tailscale is among the first to use this new feature. You can now add your Apple TV directly to your tailnet, unlocking three powerful new use cases that we’re excited to share.
Thanks! I’ll look into this. I had jellyfin installed but I always used Plex just due to a better experience on my Apple TV. The Jellyfin client can barely get subtitles right so I stopped using it
At the end of the day it’s always a trade-off. If you’re willing to give up some control and privacy Plex is going to be a very smooth experience. If you don’t like to give up privacy but still want a smoother experience and are willing to pay, Emby is probably best for you. If you don’t want to make any privacy compromises and want a free, community-supported and fully open-source solution, you have to use Jellyfin.
Don’t forget to check out Kodi on that list. It’s not a media server, it’s an indexer that runs on the client + a friendly interface. It can be a very nice solution if you mainly access your media on a single device, like a living room TV attached to your NAS.
