No problem, let me attempt to clarify as much I can.
A server (here the Bitwarden software) needs a DNS record with public IP Address(es) to be reachable by clients (smartphones, laptops) over the internet.
Hosting it on a home server won't help as home routers have private IP addresses unreachable via the internet & thus the above stated DNS as well.
It'd also be a security breach of one's computing device if the router gets compromised whilst exposing it as a server.
Hoping this helps!

We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
Why ? Is it not possible to expose the home server to the outer world ?
Some configuration in router can be done ?
Honestly I have no experience
