And it's easy to share your server with friends and relatives so that they don't have to go through the same process to watch these shows.

I was sharing my Netflix account with my mom and dad, now that I can't without paying more, I just pulled the plug on that subscription and add the shows they want to my server.

What is the easy way to share jellyfin over the internet? Portforwarding doesn't work for me cause I don't have a static ip address

EDIT: I thank all the answers but none of them seem actually easy

Purchase a domain and host it with a reverse proxy to your internal net.

You don't even need to purchase a domain, free dynDNS services (DuckDNS or similar) are good enough for Jellyfin and the like.

Free services always have some kind of dubious hidden product they are selling elsewhere about you to someone else, because network hardware is not free, network system maintenance is not free, internet access is not free. Facebook is free, yet we all know what it's true cost is.

DuckDNS is run by two guys who are funded by donations. I do agree with what you're saying about free services but I'm more willing to trust DuckDNS in this case
