Can you ELI5 why you need/use Tailscsle on your setup?

Because allowing access to your VPS/homelab without VPN is like having a one night stand without a condom. You might be ok one time but eventually your gonna wake up with a nasty virus

To make the server accessible via internet, it's a VPN service.

You could do it without tailscale too, but using it makes things extremely easy.
