What's the simplest way to give remote access to family? In the YAMS origin story and inspiration for yams this seemed to be part of the original purpose.
But I can't find any documentation on how to allow external remote user to request a TV show for example?

Hey @alanski!
YAMS is only the installer, but they are a multitude of ways of configuring remote access to your service. You can:
- Open a port in your router and use a dynamic DNS provider
- Use a selfhosted VPN like OpenVPN or Wireguard
- Use a commecial VPN like TailScale
- Use Cloudflare Tunnels
YAMS doesn't suggest one on purpose, since you have to use what is best for your configuration. For example, I use a combination between Cloudflare Tunnels and a Wireguard VPN.
Cheers!
