If you are running Jellyfin on a computer at home you’ll need to configure your dns with your dns provider to point to your home public ip then configure your router to forward port 443 to your Jellyfin server.
And this works even with a dynamic/non-static IP? I thought there was more hassle involved :D
No, if you don't have a static IP, you will need to use a dynamic DNS solution.
You might also investigate ipv6 if your ISP provides it. Often, if they don't give you a static ipv4 address, they might assign you a static block of ipv6 addresses you can use. That makes a big assumption that you can always use ipv6 though!
