However, to open up a port to the internet, you’d have to do port-forwarding on your router. If you haven’t done that, any incoming connections will just be dropped at the router-level.

Assuming they use NAT. Almost certainly true for IPv4, very unlikely for IPv6. And you should have a firewall too.

Exactly. I have my firewall set up to block everything I don’t explicitly allow through. That way if I’m a little loose with running things on ports, it at least won’t leak ports past the firewall.
