That’s basically it. It guarantees you can always access your computer remotely, even if you broke your ssh, or accidentally messed up your network config, or can’t boot due to filesystem corruption and need to run fsck from recovery mode.
Chance that your Ubuntu version already supports OpenVPN and wireguard (check your settings -> network). If so, just download wireguard/OpenVPN config files from mullvad: mullvad.net/account/openvpn-config?platform=linux
You might want to try migrating your nextcloud instance to postgres instead of mysql/mariadb. Many people says they get some big performance boost. I’m going to try it myself next weekend to see if it’s true.

If it’s exclusively for Bluetooth headphones, using a Bluetooth audio dongle (which is detected as a USB audio device in Linux) works much better than using the Bluetooth 4.0 usb dongle for audio purpose because you can use low latency aptx codex and Bluetooth 5 without messing with random drivers from some github repos
Instead of forwarding ha.yourdomain.com to 192.168.178.214 (which I assume is the lan ip address for your machine), you should forward it to a hostname called homeassistant (which is the hostname for the home assistant instance inside your docker compose network).
You can decide yourself if the data in that disk is more valuable than the price of a new disk to store the backup image. If it’s not that valuable I guess you can one-shot it.
