Mid 2022, a friend of mine helped me set up a selfhosted Vaultwarden instance. Since then, my "infrastructure" has not stopped growing, and I've been learning each and every day about how services work, how they communicate and how I can move data from one place to another. It's truly incredible, and my favorite hobby by a long shot.
Here's a map of what I've built so far. Right now, I'm mostly done, but surely time will bring more ideas. I've also left out a bunch of "technically revelant" connections like DNS resolution through the AdGuard instance, firewalls and CrowdSec on the main VPS.
Looking at the setups that others have posted, I don't think this is super incredible - but if you have input or questions about the setup, I'll do my best to explain it all. None of my peers really understand what it takes to construct something like this, so I am in need of people who understand my excitement and proudness :)

I can answer this one, but mainly only in reference to the other popular solutions:
Fully agree to this summary. traefik also gave me a hard time initially, but once you have the quirks worked out, it works as promised.
Caddy is absolutely on my list as an alternative, but the lack of docker label support is currently the main roadblocker for me.
May I present to you: Caddy but for docker and with labels so kind of like traefik but the labels are shorter 👏 https://github.com/lucaslorentz/caddy-docker-proxy
Jokes aside, I did actually use this for a while and it worked great. The concept of having my reverse proxy config at the same place as my docker container config is intriguing. But managing labels is horrible on unraid, so I moved to classic caddy instead.
Nice catch and thanks for sharing. Will definitely check it out.
