Jellyfin+Reverse Proxy (alien.top)

I'm trying to set up a Jellyfin server, with a reverse proxy so I can access it via external networks. I can't get the reverse proxy to work no matter what I try! Tried caddy, nginx, and apache2. My system is Ubuntu 22.04 arm64. Would anyone be willing to give me a pointer or even help me set it up? Could totally compensate for the effort haha.

Why do you need a reverse proxy? You don't need one to access Jellyfin externally. People use them to simply fit access when running more than one service.

I'd get it up and running locally first before trying it on a vps.

I can get it running but I still can't access the server via http://localip:8096 on an external network.
