> If you are not providing a internet service then why is your SSH open to the internet?

So that I can ssh into it from various places and do stuff on my home server from elsewhere

So you are accessing that server's services from some network, why are you not only allowing SSH over that network?

Or, if your service is open to the internet then why does not what I said above hold true?

I guess I am technically, but only for myself
What is the networking difference between a service for yourself that you want to access from "various places" and a public service with auth checks for your key?
