He missed the opportunity to mention the reverse proxy, firewall with geo blocking, VPS and WireGuard, Grafana and Loki setup.

You joke but wireguard and, very easily, tailscale, solves most crap you normally need to fix. Close everything with ufw and put tailscale, and then you trivially have access from any device / desktop.

"and you trivially have access from any device / desktop"

My definition of "trivial" seems to be different.

Ah yes, provided it has a web interface, but I kind of assumed that. I just go to http://house-porch/ etc and get streaming vid/sound.

I just rely on UniFi and HomeKit for out of home access! But you're so right I could also access remotely via my Wireguard server or Tailscale running on my ubiquiti console... Wish I could hook up baby events like "poop diaper" to Grafana.
