Help setting up new server (piefed.zip)

Hello! I'm new to self hosting and networking stuff. I do use only Linux and have experience with Debian, Ubuntu, Mint, and have settled with Fedora and Bazzite on KDE on the home computers/laptops.

I got a GMKtec NucBox G9 Mini PC Intel® Twin Lake N150 recently and wireless keyboard with touchpad, installed Fedora Kiinoite on it and have so far only added VacuumTube. I don't have much experience with the terminal and I'm not sure what step to do next or how.

What I want to do is set up an Arrstack, and I know I need to put Docker and maybe Portainer? I have no experience with Docker though. I also want to put some basic things I and others can access remotely like a shopping list program, photo backups, period tracker, and DnD software. But I'm very afraid of exposing the server to the internet and it being hacked or such. I know there's something called Tailscale but I'm not sure if that's what I need. And I don't know what order I'm supposed to put any of this.

I've tried searching the internet for guides but haven't really found anything except one that's for Yunohost and it's not really self hosting because they set it up on a cloud. All advice is appreciated. Thank you!

edit: I wanted to add I also want to use this as a htpc and it's connected to the TV, so that's why I want a GUI mostly - because it makes it easier to control from the couch

I don't run my *arr stack on Yunohost, but I'm sure it will make them all accessible ootb. You will probably need to point them to one another where necessary from within their web config. For example, sonarr will need to know where your torrent client is. So in your sonarr config you'll tell it that qbittorrent (or whatever) is at localhost:1243 (or whatever port qbittorrent is running on.
