What would be the easiest self hosted way to share a music collection privately?
I am thinking of just granting guest access to the nas folder via wireguard or a simple caddy instance but also more sophisticated versions.
It would be good (but not a must) to have a search feature enabled.
Any recommendations?
If I don’t port forward, my friends that I’ve shared with can’t see the instance
You do not need to port forward to share a Plex instance over the Internet. App.plex.tv manages the inbound connections automatically. All you need to do is manage invites to your friends. They log in with their email/password or with Google SSO to app.plex.tv and your content will be available over a secure connection with no port forwarding.
