There is a good reason I only have Jellyfin and other services accessible via valid Client Certificate.

Does it work with android and TV apps?

I tried long ago and failed.

No, we only use Jellyfin via browser. Unfortunately even with imported Client Cert, Android apps won't work.

Edit: Client Certs need to be implemented per App. There is a feature request from 2022 https://features.jellyfin.org/posts/1461/capability-to-specify-client-certificate-for-android-client

Also interested how this works for mobile apps. I self host a number of services through caddy as my reverse proxy but each application is just dependent on it's own authentication. If I exposed all my services to the internet, that's a huge attack vector. If anyone else has some ideas I'd be happy to listen.

If you are the only user and don't need to use those apps in devices you don't own a vpn is the way to go.

If not. Depending the number of users you could do some heavy ip geoblocking to at least reduce the exposed surface.

There are a few services I have just like 3 IPs allowed to get a response from caddy, any other ip gets 403 error.
