I set up an *arr stack and made it work, and now I'm trying to make it safe - the objectivly correct order.

I installed uncomplicated firewall on the system to pretend to protect myself, and opened ports as and when I needed them.

So I'm in mind to fix my firewall rules and my question is this: Given there's a more sensible ufw rule set what is it, I have looked online I couldn't find any answers? Either "limit 8080", "limit 9696", "limit ..." etc. or "open". Or " allow 192.168.0.0/16" would I have to allow my docker's subnet as well?

To head off any "why didn't you ?" it's because I'm dumb. Cheers in advance.

You have cleared up a lot of misconceptions for me, I have not been port forwarding, I have not learned how yet. I think I'm good. I don't mind breaking functional stuff, and have a lot already, but I really don't want to explain to my fiancée that the reason someone is in her bank is because I wanted to watch Samurai Jack.

I have been keeping it as insular as possible for this reason, and the next thing I intent to learn is to make it more insular by putting the pi on a subnet of its own. Actually, thank you for writing that up. I have been actively resisting using people for IT support, as I know it takes time. I have been trying to find everything I can, there isn't much or what there is assumes knowledge I don't have.

There's a comment with a list of stuff to do that I've saved. So I'll probably start knocking that out one by one.
