How to get access to home services without open ports (lemmy.world)

Hi, guys. Like in the title. I have orangepi5 with some services like nextcloud or grafana. I would like to access to those instances from outside - but I don't want to open ports.

Could you guys point me how can I achieve that?

Do I need to set domain for home services? I have heard that people recommends cloudfare tunnel, but I think cloudfare tunnel does not work with subdomain like duckdns. Do I need to buy domain for my case? One more think, if I set this tunnel or maybe other solution- should I go with https (lets encrypt) solution?

Thank You

nginxproxymanager

Well, I was trying to play with nginx proxy manager, was able to set this but still, could connect only from home network - not from outside

nginxpm still requires ports to be open, but only 2: 80 and 443. a lot better than opening every port for every service you have
