You should maybe reconsider this for security reasons. You should implement a Whitelist or a VPN. Jellyfin is notoriously insecure software, check here:
https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/issues/5415
Reading over that list, I don't really see anything that isn't "maybe gets read privileges for non-critical data". Hardly useful enough to be worth attempting access to a single personal Jellyfin server.
I'd be mildly surprised if anyone has ever bothered.
You do you, but in my view the effort outweighs the benefits.
Sure, and its your own choice - But you should still be aware of what could/can happen, so that you can make this decisions informed. Maybe I worded it a bit too harshly, i'm sorry English is not my first language.
