Jellyfin is great if you are only streaming content locally. If you have people outside your network trying to stream, it is more cumbersome to set up than Plex
If you’re behind CGNAT I don’t see how Plex will do any better. Same with no router access.
A domain is 1$ per month, which in most countries will be cheaper than any streaming service, or even a Plex subscription for that matter.
Finally, as I said, for Caddy it’s 3 lines, that you can get with 1 word search, and will have 2 substitutions for you to make, one being the previously mentioned domain, the other being Jellyfin’s IP and port. If you’re going the route of self hosting I sure hope a word search is not beyond your abilities.

A reverse proxy is like 3 lines in Caddy, it’s really not hard to set up
