You can enable remote access through firewall rules, port fwding etc but I haven't done that yet. There's a service called tailscale that allows remote access to almost any app externally, works really well. Only drawback is that if you're on mobile, the tailscale app needs to be running for access to work

I use tailscale and nzb360 to remotely access my arr suite and Plex, so I'm at least a bit familiar with it. Getting my other users setup with it might be a bit tougher, but not impossible. The fact that it's doable is a good enough jumping off point.

Apple tv has a tailscale client, as does android. Both also have jellyfin clients.

I don't think roku has either.

Roku can die in a fire, so that's fine. I'll need to do a little messing around and see what's up.
