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.

    Getting an obscure domain name doesn’t matter as attackers go straight to the IP address. If you have a certificate on your secret domain name, they have your domain the moment they hit port 443.

    Don’t use “security through obscurity”; instead just secure your services or host a VPN.
