I eat words

first you should check logs of cloudflare tunnel - most likely it cannot access your docker network. if you are using cloudflare container - it should use same network as a Immich instance.

in short: find the tunnel log and see what is happening there.

Kinda like it, but there are some ux things I don’t like. i.e. - tags are not in the search

usually i add more than 1 ip and also vultr firewall can be managed to change ip. tailscale can be used as well. there are options!

if you configure ssh access only from your home ip - then fail2ban is not needed.

sorry, this is kinda like a firewall, but protecting websites, so many vulnerabilities are filtered out. it does not protect you 100% percent (nothing does). it might be hard to setup, in that case there is an option to use waf as a service, i.e. - cloudflare has such offering, maybe there are others as well. i have looked into vultr - they seem to offer only a “usual” type of firewall, not http/application based.

Get some WAF for the public facing app, maybe at least https://github.com/nbs-system/naxsi .

it works fine, depending on popularity of your instance - you might have to add more resources in the future.

as for aarch64 - there are docker images available for lemmy and lemmy-ui
