I have used tailscale, and lately netbird, for remote access and it has worked well for Jellyfin streaming, ssh/rsync and accessing other WebUIs. All with non-default passwords of course.
However I have not set up any of the internal network hardening like OPNSense, VLANs or ReverseProxy. Is it safe to configure these remotely or am I risking locking myself out?
Thank you do much for the detailed reply! Lots of solid advice here. Very much appreciated.
You're completely right that I might be trying to do a bit too many things at once. I'll take some time to figure out what exactly it is I want to do most with the car before picking the exact model. Although I must say I'm pretty sure that day to day I won't be using it much for commuting as I already live in the city where it's pretty easy to get around by public transport or by bike. It's the idea to be able to take all my camping, surfing, fishing and whatever else gear with me and go wherever I want to have an adventure that excites me the most.
I like the idea of the camping trailer. Might look into that as an alternative to a full van as I do like the idea of being convertible between small car and bigger camping setup. But it might also fall into the "not really good at anything" trap.
I'll have a think and see what the next step I come up with will be.

That's a good point.
However in the EU it should be the opposite - otherwise the site is violating GDPR.
Sometimes I have a feeling sites do whatever they want anyway regardless of bow many dark patterns I click through to find the "no" and "off" buttons because there are no real repercussions. Just like the "do not track" request and "robots.txt" are essentially useless.
You're right, that it doesn't just work as conveniently out-of-the-box on Codeberg. However you do not have to self-host: You merely have to apply to get access to their hosted Woodpecker instance at ci.codeberg.org.
Onboarding requires a few manual steps, as to prevent the abuse of Codeberg's limited resources. You will need to request access by filling out this form. After submitting, a Codeberg volunteer will review your request and grant you access if your use case is appropriate.
I want this in my home just so I can get some excellent eye rolls from my guests when I say it.
it's hiergharghkchical!
Thank you very much for the pointers! There is so much info at different levels out there that it's encouraging to get recommendations.
Gicen the risk of locking myself out (have been prone to do that even IRL) I may limit firewalling to times where I have physical access.
Reverse proxy sounds intriguing though. I've got a domain already, so just missing... well.. the rest (:
Actually, I was wondering:

This is such a nice overview. Thank you for sharing!

Thank you for sharing the song, that was lovely.

Aah, you are right. Lazy me actually never looked at those. Now I did and it seems to work just fine enabling the Annoyances > Cookie Banners.

codeberg.org (which runs on Forgejo) offers a nice ci solution: Woodpecker.
In my experience uBlock origin doesn't really get rid of cookie consent banners/dark patterns. Damn good at bonking ads though.
