I am hosting few services for my friends and family on my server. Due to devices limitations, I can't install VPN on TVs etc. Is it possible to restrict the access to only those users that have a certificate issued by me?

Personally I use Caddy reverse proxy server and Pihole. I have configured my IP as a domain name in local DNS (example.com).

Caddy supports automatic TLS 1.3 support. So I just copied the CA file snd I installed to all of my devices (even in my Oculus Quest 2). I want to watch movies? I am coming to movies.example.com. i want to read my books? bookd.example.com.

Caddy configuration is very easy, even using containers with docker.
