I have Plex, Radarr, Sonarr, Overseerr etc running in Docker containers, but have never found a good guide on how to access these (safely) from outside. I resort to connecting to a server running VNC. I've tried nginx but didn't understand it, also tried Cloudflare (ditto). Is there a good, easy to understand guide on how to do this?

You’re probably looking for Tailscale. Simple to use, free plan, extensible and powerful.

    In addition to the server and desktop clients, there are mobile apps for both Android and iOS.

    Can be used to connect offsite server for backups or hosting but seen as part of your local network. No need for open ports on your home router.

    Easy way to access you Plex servee when away from home.
