Exposing self-hosted services to internet for self-use only (alien.top)

I have several selfhosted services that I have been using for months, now I wish to access these while I am not at home. Likes of nextcloud, nocodb, wikijs and other media sharing self-hosted services

I would like to know what precautions should I take so no one knows that such a domain exists.

should I purchase a crazy numbered domain like 671341412312.com ? or should I go for .tk domains.

Would like to get some suggestions from this community on other aspects that I am missing.

For just yourself? Get a domain that you can actually remember and use and then set up a WireGuard server (I recommend the Linuxserver.io WireGuard image)

Use that to access your stuff

Do you have 1 thing you desparately need to be publicly accessible? VLAN the VM off so it's on its own and put a reverse proxy in front of it with HTTPS (and ideally MFA if you need auth)
