You can use their public server if you want, otherwise you can spin up your own on a cheap/free VPS.

You install the ntfy app on your phone and subscribe to channels which then can/will alert.

Hey friend, would you like to buy some donald diapers. Please send 10 BTC to this address .............

It works, but isn't nearly as user friendly.

Headscale running as it's own user with tailscale ACLs. Tailscale calls home to headscale via HTTPS and gets the info. Assuming the person doesn't get root access it's should be fairly safe. With tailscale ACLs you set up whicu systems can reach where. Also don't forgot you can use UFW/iptables in each client that way it's still locked down.

I was happy with Cloudfanatic.

For servers autorestic just worked. It's a wrapper for restic. I sent data to backlaze B2 and StorJ. Now that I have a couple proxmox hosts in a colo, I have an off-site PBS running in ZFS.rent.

First VMs back up to local PBS , then nightly that's synced to ZFS.rent. I have PVE set to do encrypted backups to PBS so it's all encrypted.

I 2nd this.

Be aware hosting media thru their proxy is breaking their ToS. Not saying anything will happen, but be mindful.

Especially since my vasectomy

Oh ok. That's awesome. I didn't know it could do UDP/TCP proxying. That's awesome.

I'm not sure if you can proxy smb as it's not http/s data. If using NGiNX you could use something like the stream config, but there's not really an advantage.
