I use WireGuard. It is sufficient for me, because I have no need to make my services publicly visible.

How do you access those services from a public network? Say, you want to access something while working from your office or a friend's computer.

With Wireguard?

Sure, but what if that computer doesn't have wireguard installed. I don't see any other way except exposing the service to the public.

I use Tailscale, and you can set up a subnet router for that particular use case.
