Ask HN: What services do you self-host, and how do you secure access to them?

Are you self-hosting at home, using a cloud provider, VPS, or a dedicated server? How do you restrict public access to admin panels? Do you use tunnels or a zero-trust network?

I self-host pretty much everything I rely on. I use a dedicated server at home. Aside from a couple of small and simple webpages, access to everything I host is only possible through a VPN (that I host).

Self hosting at home and an offsite Dedicated Server. MikroTik guy so have an AX3 at home an a P1 CHR.

WireGuard between the two for direct admin access.

Nginx Proxy Manager running on servers on either side, with port 80 and 443.
