Hi guys,

Just wanted to see why people would expose services either through a reverse proxy or normally, if technology like WireGuard and OpenVPN exist?

Convenience would probably be the top answer, but is it really worth the risk?

Thanks

    Same. I run plex on a VPS behind openvpn. Plex’s indirect access makes it really easy to access the media on it even though I can’t open ports across the VPN.
