What else is the “remote HTTPS connection”? Is it possible to stream my stream OUTWARDS to WAN? (With port forwading) So I can just give friends a link to stream from my stream? Easy peasy? Would be super handy

Fair.

Remote HTTPS connections through stremio are going to need some sort of certificate; it’s likely you’ll have to run a reverse proxy through caddy or something to let people easily access it from the outside.

For friends - I set them up a user on jellyfin and point them at media.mydomain.com and they get … essentially a netflix interface. I tell them their username and password, and they just use it like plex/netflix.

OP — Plex is a step easier, as Plex brokers the connection. No reverse proxy. The same plus in this case can also be seen as a minus.

I’m still on the Plex bus, and it’s good for me and friends. Jellyfin will get there one day, but right now it’s just not quite feature complete enough for my use cases.

This is the only feature I envy from Plex

okay gotcha. I set up the reverse proxy Caddy. Now if I browse to my external IP, I get redirected to:

https://app.strem.io/shell-v4.4/?streamingServer=http%3A%2F%2F(-my-external-IP-)%3A11472#/detail/movie/tt15314262/tt15314262

Is this intended? Why am I using their site? I’m so confused. I thought my Stremio + Caddy would connect me INDEPENDENTLY over the interwebs :/

Just. Cloudflare reverse túnel to a domain.
