    Wireguard is also very simple to setup. This would allow you to share other services you host in the future in a secure way as well.

      Your mom’s Tizen TV doesn’t have a Wireguard or Tailscale client, so you’re going to be the person configuring her router, or setting up a Pi or something, as well as now being the designated tech support.

        Its not hard to setup a proxy and use a full SSL cert. A little bit more complex but much simpler for the rest of the family.

          You suggested Wireguard, not me. I’m pointing out how it isn’t a great solution to the problem that was presented; you can safely access it remotely with a VPN, but then that isn’t very useful for sharing with others, and you can expose the service to the internet at large, but then you’re opening yourself to risk.
