Securing the admin panel, putting it behind Tailscale?

I am a beginner so putting the admin panel behind Tailscale was an easy way to keep prying eyes away, but it seems to break a bunch of functionality and clearly I do not understand all the moving parts in the app.

IP whitelisting is not the best option for me because I am frequently using networks with dynamic IP.

If anybody has figured out a solution to prohibiting public traffic to the admin panel, or what I need to do to put the panel alone behind Tailscale and still route public traffic where it needs to go, I would appreciate your input. :)

EDIT: I thought that there really was a way to separate the administrative features with user features that I just did not understand, but now that I know that everything really is one big ol' thing, I see why it is redundant to try and do this! Thanks to everyone who left an informative comment. :D
