I want to start with self hosting something available from internet. Currently I have jellyfin, nas etc but everything is available in local network.
My biggest concern is securing local network. I thought i will run application on separate server, I will use small vps as proxy, but Im not sure if it will be enough


Don’t do this
Right now you know enough to be dangerous and because of that you should not expose thing to the internet.
Idk how to understand your post?
I read some comments here and I think that the most important is to separate lan in proper way.
But still I feel more comfortable if everything is in tailscale network…
Separating LANs doesn’t really do much in terms of the wider internet. An adversary would likely be more interested in your internet connection than anything else.
I personally would stick to using a VPN
OP, if you ever decide to go the Cloudflare Tunnels/Zero Trust route, I’ve got a set of instructions/notes that have helped a handful of people deploy Cloudflare Tunnels/Zero Trust. I’d be more than happy to share them.
