I want to compare the security of running my own:

• Wireguard server
• http proxy
• socks5 proxy
• Shadowsocks proxy

I currently port forward for wireguard, but would like some backups/alternatives, and censorship circumvention options. How risky or insecure are these protocols? Can I use them as normal VPNs into my homelab?

Any resources to research further?

Also: should I use my IP, or a domain? Which is better for censorship circumvention?
