Is there a good guide on how to access services from outside my network? (lemmy.world)

I have Plex, Radarr, Sonarr, Overseerr etc running in Docker containers, but have never found a good guide on how to access these (safely) from outside. I resort to connecting to a server running VNC. I've tried nginx but didn't understand it, also tried Cloudflare (ditto). Is there a good, easy to understand guide on how to do this?

Use cloudflare tunnels. I can access all my localhosts from outside with just one main domain (they are each attached to subdomain of the main domain).

I've found CloudFlare tunnels to be really useful. You can restrict who can have access to your apps outside your nextwork. You can also leave it completely open if you want.
