@couldhavebeenyou@lemmy.zip @Seralth@piefed.seralth.com If they have internet, you don't really need to. Get a seedbox account at ultra.cc, which also allows you to install the *arr suite and Seerr as well as your choice of Plex or Jellyfin. Once that's all setup (it's a bit of effort, particularly the arr setups), the Plex/Jellyfin server is exactly like a private netflix, which you can use Seerr to add basically any show or movie you want to it. This is much better than trying to set them up on a vpn that you won't be there to handle the problems. That said, ultra.cc also provides Wireguard as an installable app, so you can connect via wireguard, if necessary.

    Ah ok. So to avoid them having to access mine over a vpn, I just get my grandparenys to checks notes rent a seedbox and host their own server. Brilliant. I’ll go get gramps some docs so he can read up on how to roll his own shit then
