Using Fail2ban to protect exposed services (arvind.io)

I'm wondering if I'm starting to outgrow Tailscale... my wife keeps having networking issues on Android due to Tailscale, the Nvidia Shield kills the Tailscale app randomly, and my parents' TV doesn't have a Tailscale app...

I feel like the time is approaching to publicly expose some of my services to the internet...

Any other tips?

Exposing stuff to the internet shouldn't be that scary... I haven't had any incident so far in 8 years. Yes, you see plenty of illegitimate access attempts in the logs, but if everything is properly patched, it should be OK.
