OpenVPN. I can self-host a lot of different things for my own personal internet/cloud thingy - Bitwarden, Pi-Hole, etc; but to actually use it when I'm not home? I either pay for a VPS or I just have a VPN back to my home network. So much becomes possible with that; like I have the contents of my entire NAS at my fingertips even if I'm not home; I can render projects on a VM at home and manage it from my phone, etc.
OpenVPN is, without a doubt, the most important part of my infrastructure.
