Can you suggest some good documentation to start with? As I mentioned,
there is a lot of outdated information, and it’s really difficult to
filter out what’s essential.
Always start at the source:
https://wiki.nftables.org/wiki-nftables/index.php/Main_Page#Basic_operation
You could also use a front end like UFW, Firewalld, Foomuuri to see what
are those are doing and build-up from there.
A FW is not the only tool to secure if you expose services publicly.
With what I've learned on Debian I was able to bring it to RHEL distros
as well
So to me, it's not a question of what to choose. I'd say abuse that
freedom and see what works best for you.
One small step at a time..
