what's the simple way to map services to subdomains instead of specifying the port number? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I have a bunch of services running on my LAN, mostly from a single Debian machine. I access them at URLs like http://devicename.lan:portnumber. I would like to change to http://servicename.devicename.lan.

How it works now: The router (openwrt) sets a static IP per device and the port number is selected by the application or system unit running it.

What is the absolute simplest way to accomplish this? I don't mind if it is managed by the router or by the server machine itself. Hoping for something that can be configured with a text file or web interface or other basic mathod.

These sevices are private, just for me and I have no plans to ever access them externally. I have so far avoided any certificates or SSL or other stuff. I don't use docker and would rather not get into it right now. I like my domain name setup how it is with fake local domains.

Hoping this could be possible without making a whole project out of it.

It looks like criticisms similar to mine were offered in the comments of the youtube video you linked at first, and now the youtuber has released a second video, a correction. In this video he uses nginx proxy manager and DNS-01 challenges:

Big respect for doing that.
