It will not be a 100 times better than this, you’d need the vpn setup already on every client, how could others ever connect to it? Its also just cool to have a domain and expose it properly, I already use a vpn for admin only things
Comment on Is Authelia enough without fail2ban or crowdsec?

Please don’t expose your services to the internet directly. Use something like Tailscale/Headscale/whatever mesh VPN is relevant now. It’ll always be 100 times better than this and you wouldn’t worry about Authelia, f2b and CrowdSec (though updating your services and server(s) is always worth it).

“Okay mom, you need to install this VPN, log in, and make sure it’s on whenever you’re using Immich. Can you install it for Dad too? Now I’m going to call grandma back and explain that it isn’t a Deen Peen Em and she’s never going to find that.”
There are times and places. The moment you want the non tech side of the family involved, a proper with server over the open internet is usually the better option.
