Locally selfhosting photos, no internet (self-signed certificates)

I want to selfhost Ente Photos in my LAN and don't expose it to the internet. It would be ok for me to just do everything over http as I use a VPN to connect to the Ente server when I'm away. But museum only accepts https traffic (see https://help.ente.io/self-hosting/administration/reverse-proxy).

Ok then I put a reverse proxy in front of it and serve museum over https with a self-signed certificate. This works on desktop in the browser once you trust the self-signed certificate in the systems truststore.
But the Ente App doesn't work this way. I doesn't accept the certificate even if it is added to the truststore. What can I do? I can't be the only one who doesn't want to expose Ente to the public internet if not needed.

How can I either:
- make the Ente app trust my self-signed certificate?
- connect to museum over http only?
