I have an openwrt router at home which also acts as my home server. It's running a bunch of services using docker (Jellyfin, Nextcloud, etc.)

I have set up an SSH tunnel between my openwrt router and VPS and can access jellyfin successfully.

I understand that I need to set up a reverse proxy to access multiple services and have https.

But I'm confused if I should set up this reverse proxy on the VPS or on the router itself. Is nginx the easiest option? Should i add subdomains in cloudflare for every service?

Pease don't recommend vpns since they are all blocked where i live (wireguard, tailscale openVPN, etc.) I'm limited to using ssh tunneling only.

Thanks

Completely agree. I haven't used NPM since I started self hosting a few years ago, but I was never able to get it to work right. I ended up using apache2 as it was pretty well documented everywhere. Moved to caddy v1 when I found it as the config is so easy to write and understand. Moved to v2 when it was released and had no issues. Their forum is incredibly helpful if you run into any issues. At this point its a "relatively" mature platform and most projects I've setup have an example config (usually just 1 or 2 lines because that's all you need).
