I'm trying to learn about selfhosting and whatnot, but it's....a lot. Is there anything I need to do specifically besides configuring it correctly in order to protect it and myself. I hear people talking about putting stuff in dockers, putting things behind a reverse proxy, a VPN, etc.

I do currently have it running behind ProtonVPN but that's it. Do I need to be doing more?

Thanks in advance for any help!

I did not do any configuration with the ports whatsoever. It's just one of my PCs connected to a NAS, which in turn streams television shows, movies, documentaries, and music throughout my home. No one else has physical access to the serup, and as far as I know, no one else has remote access to it either.
