It allows me to connect into the house via the VPS without opening ports or knowing my home address.
Nowadays there are various companies offering tunnelling services, but my setup has been working for a long time and I see no reason to change.
I clearly don’t know enough about reverse ssh connections.
My understanding is that you tell the VPS to connect to your computer, a shell pops up on your end, and commands run in it will control the VPS. It helps get around firewalls and makes it less obvious to defenders that an attacker has control of a box because it’s not an inbound connection, it’s an outbound connection.
What’s your workflow? So you ssh into the VPS and maybe use Tmux or Screen to connect to a terminal session, that session is connected to your home machine but instead of sending commands back to the VPS, it sends commands to your home computer?
