I'd recommend using a VPN (or VPN-like service) to connect to the server - it might not be as simple as Google Photos et al to set up, but is likely the most secure option

Something like Tailscale?

I thought about it, but aren't the current best practices moving away from VPN access towards more granular authentication and authorization? If I understand it correctly, once someone gets past VPN, it's over. So now I have to secure both VPN and my server (and the services).
