Stop exposing services like these to the Internet. If you need remote access, use a VPN.
You don’t need to own a domain either. Use a free dynamic DNS provider.
And if you don’t need remote access, don’t bother with that at all. Just run a local DNS server with records for these services with anything under the .internal TLD. Or even just IP address.
HTTPS can come later. It’s really not important for traffic that’s not sensitive, like no passwords or whatever.
Definitely need remote access, and tunneling in every time I want to sync my notes app is way too much work. I’ve containerized these services as a security layer and you need user creds to access anything without an exploit. I’m comfortable with that level of risk.
Dynamic DNS is a very cool thing I didn’t know exists. I’ll definitely look into it further! But for the time being I still need a fix for my problem.

There’s no reason not to expose those services to the Internet, they have authentication, and noone can access them without logging in first. There are actually reasons for exposing them, you can share a memo or a file to other people

You assume there is no vulnerability in the web server itself, or a vulnerability that allows bypassing authentication.
