    I’d much rather deal with setting up a few VPN gateways which is trivial at most…than securing a public web service. I deal with that crap enough at work.

    There are a lot less variables to contend with with a single VPN endpoint which undergoes considerably more security auditing than N public web services. Many of which I don’t have the time to review myself and mitigate if they decide to suck at coding.

    Edit: I share my services with less than 5 households though.

    Edit2: I’m not sure what public ipv4 or ipv6 has to do with this. My remote sites use starlink ipv4. I haven’t setup ipv6 on those internally at all. They all tunnel via wireguard to my homesite.

      When I set up wireguard it was just more complicated when one side didn’t have a public IP. Whyyyy can’t we adopt ipv6 already.
