    Oh, that’s great. But just to be clear, when it’s toggled on, that means all traffic on that device is getting routed back through the host Tailscale client (not just Plex), right?

      I don’t use the mulvad thing, but I do not set my tailnet device as an endpoint. Only traffic meant for my server gets to my network.

      Lots of ways to do it.

      The biggest thing is, jf will feel different. Give it a chance, run it side by side Plex for a while. Fix your media database or update your files, do some spring cleaning, and pick jf to watch your stuff until t feels natural. Then it’s time to bring users over.

      No, all other traffic would only be re-routed if you use the mullvad add-on in your tailscale account, which is the vpn add-on. Tailscale by itself is to only allow you to connect to any services behind tailscale. So, tailscale gives your server an ip address. With tailscale and jellyfin on another device you would enter the tailscale ip of your server into jellyfin with your credentials and connect to it that way.

        That’s great, I didn’t know it was per service. Definitely going to set up Jellyfin now. Thank you!

          Yep, tailscale will allow you to connect to any services you have on the tailscaled server from another device, such as Jellyfin, Navidrome, *arr apps, etc. Any other traffic on another device will be regular unrouted traffic unless you add the Mullvad add-on in your tailnet. Its a few extra steps to set up but worth it IMO.
