I think the situation under discussion is converting plex users to jellyfin though. Most plex users won’t have a reverse proxy setup because it’s not needed.

this is the selfhosting comm. I'm willing to bet that virtually ever person here who has a home server of some kind, has a reverse proxy or VPN set up that they could access Jellyfin from.
