I think this is an excellent suggestion. I used Cloudflare tunnels until recently, and it was very effective. However, I stopped because of a minor issue, which I'll mention in case its a deal breaker for anyone.
Technically, using Cloudflare tunnels for Jellyfin is a ToS violation. You're only allowed to do so if you have an enterprise account, which is quite expensive.
I heard from a "friend of a friend" that everyday users don't need to worry about this. Cloudflare are aware of people using tunnels with Jellyfin and they aren't fussed. The rule is supposedly there to combat large scale piracy.
However, I have heard that cloudflare does decide to start caring if they can use jellyfin use as an extra excuse to kick anybody involved in other ToS violations.
In all likelihood, this won't be a problem for you. While I used tunnels, they worked perfectly. However, given that you are going to go to the effort of sorting out some level of infrastructure for yourself, its something to keep in mind.
I've heard people say this, and I've heard people say you can't stream music. Tho I do not run the 'arr stack or Jellyfin, I do run Navidrome almost 24/7/365. But it's something to keep in mind.
