I have 3 subnets. One for me, one for family members and one for the publicly accessible services I expose. Each process has limited access to the file system, no root shell and even in the case someone gains full control of it they can’t reach other subnets. I use fail2ban too.

For the “me” part, I connect through a VPN. I’d like to run rootless docker services tho, or by using Podman
