> Can you expand on this further? Wouldn’t this just be exposing myself to the same vulnerabilities as OP?
Yeah I wouldn't do this personally, I just mentioned it as the simplest option.
> If I use nginx as a reverse proxy, would I be mitigating the risk?
If the reverse proxy performs additional authentication before allowing traffic to pass onto the service it's protecting, then yes, it would.
One of my more elegant solutions has been to forward a port to nginx and configure it to require TLS client certificate verification. I generated and installed a certificate on each of my devices. It's seamless for me in day to day usage, but any uninvited visitors would be denied entry with a message saying that they didn't provide a valid certificate.
However support for client certificates is spotty outside of browsers, across platforms, which is unfortunate. For example HomeAssistant on Android supports it [1] (after years of pleading), but the iOS version doesn't. [2] NextCloud for iOS however supports it [3].
In summary, I think any kind of authentication added at the proxy would be great for both usability and security, but it has very spotty support.
> Based on other advice, it seems like the self hosted VPN (wireguard) is the safest option, but slower.
I think so. It shouldn't be slow per se, but it's probably going to affect battery life somewhat and it's annoying to find it disconnected when you try to access Immich or other services.
