Hey folks,

I‘m new in the HomeServer business. So I started with two little applications on my Proxmox: paperless and do most

In the next time I’ll start a little project to collaborate more. Current I connect to my HomeServer with VPN. But if other people start connecting to my instance it would be useful to get an other secure system.

What is the way you prefer to give other people like your fam or friends access to your services (e. g. nextcloud)?

Thanks for helping an newbie!

    I wouch for the VPN route… VPN servers are built to be exposed, are hardened/engineered to resist the harshness of the net and are somewhat safe even with default settings.

    Should you publish on the wild a few web apps, you would have to harden, monitor and manage a bunch of environments and/or frameworks with a load of quirks each.

    A VPN is easier to maintain and safer for your data with a lower effort.
