Oh for sure. I would only do so if you have a proper firewall running, a DMZ set up. Among other precautions.
Comment on Ways to Expose Services Publicly
pineapplelover@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 week agoYeah but my main concern is security. If I publicly have services like jellyfin or something then I would think I would have constant exploits and bot attacks

You will.
Anything you expose should be designed for it (e.g. not jellyfin). You should have a WAF configured for the type of service you’re hosting. You can’t just drop one and have it magically protect you, they take configuration. Same with fail2ban.
And you should have these services in a DMZ, so that a compromise in one doesn’t provide an entry point to other resources on your network.
