It should be noted that you’re not permitted to stream video through Cloudflare unless you use their CDN.
I believe this is incorrect. I can't find the forum post from Cloudflare but you cannot use the CDN to deliver video without paying for it, but you can use CF as a reverse proxy via Cloudflared to deliver video so long as you aren't on the CDN
They even have blog posts on using Cloudflared for hobby video streaming projects like a RPi pet cam. Unless it's assumed I have an enterprise account.

Unless you are an Enterprise customer, Cloudflare offers specific Paid Services (e.g., the Developer Platform, Images, and Stream) that you must use in order to serve video and other large files via the CDN. Cloudflare reserves the right to disable or limit your access to or use of the CDN, or to limit your End Users’ access to certain of your resources through the CDN, if you use or are suspected of using the CDN without such Paid Services to serve video or a disproportionate percentage of pictures, audio files, or other large files. We will use reasonable efforts to provide you with notice of such action.
Sure if you only intend to stream your pets RPi webcam nothing to worry :) ! But don't even get into streaming illegal content you don't own !
I mean, your jellyfin instance is not going to be hooked to a Arr stack, is it?
I don't know what that is. So no.
And obvious it's all movies and TV shows I own that's just conveniently ripped for sharing with friends and family :)
Yeah, than you have nothing to worry I guess? I'm not versed into all this legal shit whatsoever...
However if you intend to use the arrstack (sonarr, radarr...) to download and manage your own video library (netflix like), I'm not so sure they will agree on it.
