So I was able to install everything correctly, but I don’t know what I’m supposed to do in order for people that don’t have my same IP to see my files. I’d like to share my Jellyfin server with some friends so they can see movies there. I’ve already open the ports, but they can’t still access them, I’m using elementaryOS Hera which is built on Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS.

I think you should be able to run:
caddy reverse-proxy --from example.com --to 127.0.0.1:8096where example.com is your duckdns URL
Instead of 127.0.0.1:8096 I should input my public IP, right?
No, leave that as 127.0.0.1:8096 as long as you haven’t changed the port from 8096.

Edit your post to change your DuckDNS address to http://example.duckdns.org in case someone tries to hack you.
I think you need to run as sudo, but with your URL add an s, so https://example.duckdns.org (but put in your actual duckdns address).
It still gives me the same error. uwu
Hmmm on your router you may need to add another rule for port 80. Do exactly what you did before for port 443. Add a rule for the IP your jellyfin server is running on, then enter port 80 in both of the port fields.
I didn’t create any type of .json file or something like that for Caddy like that forum post or the documentation says, could that be doing something? Also I realized I didn’t save the router config for port 443, I just saved it and ran it but it still gives me the same error, maybe it takes a bit to update.
I’m going to do that now, though.
Edit: Just opened port 80, still the same error. U_U
Edit 2: Thanks for being so patient and helping me.
I’m not sure…
Actually when you run the caddy command remove the https:// at the start. Just input example.duckdns.org (but with your actual url).
I struggled a bit with my setup too. I think I ended up manually editing the Caddy config file at some point.
Edit: No worries. Hopefully someone more knowledgable than me will chime in to help us! :-)
