For most of my VMs there's no ssh running. I use wireguard to connect to a private IP. I haven't done this on the bare metal yet but I might. Though barring exploits like we had recently nobody is getting into a server with either strong passwords or certificates. Fail2ban in my eyes is a log cleaner. It's not useful for much else.

it bans the bad ips, isn't that worth running?

But what does that actually accomplish?

stops the attack from happening from those ips?
