Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

how can I make sure?
Are you using the GUI?
no
It's listed as the "profile" in the screenshots you're listing, but that's the ruleset you're altering.
I used nft or iptables, and my interaction with ufw has been sparse, and mostly through the UI, because the rulesets the GUI generates are incomprehensible. There should be a command in ufw to report which profile is active.
I'm going to guess this is a dead-end, since you've been using the CLI and I have to believe it uses the active profile by default, unless you tell it otherwise. However, in the GUI, if you edit rules in a profile it doesn't automatically apply to your current ruleset. And if you alter your current ruleset, it doesn't automatically persist it. So, even if you change a rule on the Home profile, and the Home profile is active, it doesn't automatically get applied to the running ruleset; you have to take another action to apply it.
Mind you, that's all through the UI; I've never used the ufw command line, so this is (again) probably a red herring. I find ufw to be obtuse at best, because of the Byzantine rulesets it generates.
