Is it normal to not have any malicious login attempts? (reddthat.com)

I've been running Home Assistant for three years. It's port forwarded on default port 8123 via a reverse proxy in a dedicated VM serving it over HTTPS and is accessible over ipv4 and ipv6. All user accounts have MFA enabled.

I see a notification every time there's a failed login attempt, but every single one is either me or someone in my house. I've never seen a notification for any other attempts from the internet. Not a single one.

Is this normal? Or am I missing something? I expected it to be hammered with random failed logins.

Iirc Jellyfin isn't exactly intended to be operated outside of your home network like Plex is. There are workarounds of course, but the onus is on the user to secure it.
