If you are going to programmatically manage the reverse proxy, traefik is much better than NPM.
You can make NPM's manager only accessible internally or from a certain IP to reduce your attack surface. I use both.
Obviously I'm not going to expose the NPM control panel to the outside, I'm not insane. Tbf I really only expose Jellyfin because other family members use it, otherwise I would be VPNing in all the way.
I didn't figure so, just wanted to say that because it's the more vulnerable attack surface. I hope overlay networks catch on in a bigger way, I share some of my resources with zerotier without having stuff directly exposed.
