is that against ToS? i want to do it but dont want to get banned
What are your concerns about Cloudflare and getting 'banned'? There used to be a clause in the TOS that prohibited streaming video. However, as one user here has pointed out, that has been since superseded. Now, I'm not going to tell you that you can share your JF with 20 other users and not raise an eyebrow with Cloudflare. I don't have a clue what they would do in that case. As far as streaming, I run Navidrome around the house from the time I get up in the morning, until I go to bed at night, and have had no issues. There also isn't a bandwidth cap that I can find anywhere in Cloudflare's documentation.

Not permitted but tolerated (until it isnt)
Like I said, if you've hooked up 20 of your best buds to your JF, then yeah they'd probably have an issue with that. Personal use, I doubt they'd care really.
Still only tolerated.
Walking a fime line on getting your account closed/domain banned or at the very least receiving a warning.
Wishing you best of luck not getting banned.
Well, to cut through the FUD, we'll have to look at the operative words which are: 'disproportionate percentage of pictures, audio files, or other large files'. It's not saying, you can't stream a video or some audio, or look at your pictures. So, yeah, I think I'm good, and if it does happen, drop back to option 2. No biggie.
They explicitly mention non-legal content.
Immich? Safe (we are not looking at 20GB pictures/videos)
Static pages from containers? Should be safe
Jellyfin/Plex? Walking the line on getting banned.
Cloudflare is replacable but it will be heavily annoying to do so.
And I'd rather not do it unprepared.
I don't run JF or any parts of the *arr stack, so legal/shady video content isn't a concern. I do stream my private/physical audio collection via Navidrome I've been amassing for decades all converted out to flac. I mean, from Cloudflare's standpoint, I think it's reasonable and understandable.
Same thing.
Copyrighted media your ripped and am streaming.
My point is that I think Cloudflare is ok with personal use, but if you are heavily hammering them on the daily, it would probably be an issue. It hasn't been an issue to date, and I've been running with Cloudflare for quite a while. You do bring up some good points/concerns, and it's something every user should consider before hitching their wagon to Cloudflare. It is a free tier after all, but not unlimited.
That's exactly what I meant.
Yep and agreed.
I haven’t had any issues with friends streaming 4k! I probably should add a data cap in the Jellyfin settings, though
I don't have a definite answer for that. I don't stream video through Cloudflare.
Good to know. I wasn't aware of this.
Just looked it up and your right, they changed their ToS in 2023
They have not: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/comment/26944007
