Looking for a way to remote in to K's of raspberry pi's...
now some things you need to think about: - cloud init - this will need to be secure so lock it down hard anything not needed an alternative OS to look at if you have the ability's is https://www.alpinelinux.org/ also as these devices are not that powerfull every extra agent / abstaction layer you add impacts performance need to look at low over head security https://www.crowdsec.net/ and https://github.com/fail2ban/fail2ban (if you call fail2ban security) - using certificates to authenticate ssh login

I am (to be) a web designer, how to ensure security on a vps?
See https://github.com/fail2ban/fail2ban for beginner's guide, basically you set it up to monitor logfiles and it would act accordingly (plenty of built-in config to handle various daemons so you don't have to write yourself).

Home Lab Setup Recommendations
- Nginx & crowdsec/fail2ban if you are exposing your parts (services) to the public ( https://hub.docker.com/r/baudneo/nginx-proxy-manager, https://www.crowdsec.net, https://www.fail2ban.org )

fail2ban not notifying Cloudflare
— In /etc/fail2ban/action.d/cloudflare.conf I copied the file from https://github.com/fail2ban/fail2ban/blob/master/config/action.d/cloudflare.confand added my ‘cftoken’ and ‘cfuser’ on the bottom

Firewall rules beyond "deny incoming, enable only the ports that you need"
https://github.com/fail2ban/fail2ban is a mature, easy to set up way to have some dynamic firewall rules that respond to attacks. There are more sophisticated options, but they are probably not worth the return on time investment for you.

Risks of hosting a website out of my house
Monitoring & Active Measures - Exporting firewall events to an external time-series database like I describe above is good to see who is touching your firewall or accessing your web site. Using an Intrusion Detection System / Intrusion Prevention System (IDS/IPS) such as open-source Suricata, which is a free package on pfSense, and deploying file system integrity monitoring, such as the open-source Wazuh on the exposed server are also good approaches to protecting yourself.

Server Hardening
Active Measures - Includes (IDS/IPS) such as open-source Suricata or Snort on pfSense, and File Integrity Monitoring (FIM), such as the commercial Tripwire and dated, open-source Tripwire, or the open-source Wazuh installed on servers. These can be combined into a Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) system like the open-source solution, Security Onion. Wazuh itself has evolved into a SIEM.
