You use Cloudflare to proxy, or in other words, hide your IP. Anyone can hit your DNS records, grab your IP and start DDOSing or hacking on it. They also have some nice features to force security features like HSTS or WAF rules. I’d recommend looking into it, not proxying your public IP is an amateur move. As for using NGINX proxy manager, consider using standalone NGINX and writing your own configuration files. There’s a pretty big security issue with it the lead developer refuses to patch.
