OK:

    This has not been a detailed step by step walkthrough 
    on how to do things, by design. You are meant to go and explore; 
    this is simply a way pointer to invigorate your curiosities
Sorry, but because I came looking for solutions, I found the invigoration aggravating, but then helpful in focusing my attention.

Scalable services and sites I can build, 10 different ways.

My enduring, blocking need is for dead-simple idiot-proof network management to safely poke a head out on public IP from home. And to make secure peer-to-peer connections. Somehow that process never converges on a solution in O(available) time.

For remote access to private services, would Tailscale/Wireguard be an option? It can even use Apple TV as an exit node.

> secure peer-to-peer connections

Which protocols would you consider secure for P2P use, e.g. which solutions have you tried previously which failed to converge?

Tailscale is that.
