Ways to Expose Services Publicly

I want to expose my services publicly on my own domain name, how would you guys do that?

I have seen people using Cloudflare, but I don’t want to use Cloudflare out of principle. I have also seen stuff on caddy and frp that I’ve done some rough researching.

What do you guys do?

I bought myself a Synology disk station and a domain.

Yes I use Cloudflare for DNS so I can get a wildcard domain cert using ACME.

I use the Synology supplied login portal as a web application firewall for every site I want to host with the wildcard SSL cert. Like bar.mydomain.com, mealie.mydomain.com, etc.

The Synology routes the traffic to the services hosted on other services within my network.

Anything else I don’t want open to the public web, I use the Synology supplied OpenVPN server to connect.
