    Is using a VPS with WireGuard really more secure for hosting web services?

    What is the real security value of VPS + WireGuard for hosting web services: is it more than just IP masking?

    As you mention, people can setup a lot of things, i dont know what services / features a VPS offers, i'd say:
    Dont use default ports
    Only use https
    fail2ban is good for general security and not just for Jellyfin
    A secure OS
    Dont allow your admin account to access the server from remote
    Run Jellyfin in a docker and only allow read only on your medie folder destinations.
    Debian 12 | Jellyfin 10.10.7 docker | Intel N5105 | RAM 32 GB | 26 TB storage
