    My stuff is only accessible from my LAN (because I haven’t figured out how to set up a tunnel or reverse proxy yet).

        I’ve tried to use ZeroTier because Tailscale still has centralized servers for starting the connection, but had trouble getting it to work. Maybe I should stop letting the perfect be the enemy of the good.

        Screw Tailscale, ZeroTier and specially cloudflare, all centralized, all with changable terms.

        Use a VPS, lowest spec but good bandwidth, and use Wireguard VPN for your VPS and homeserver, and nginx or caddy to make a Reverse Proxy

          All agreed but not every homelabber can spend money for something that is not the main job or contributed to work. Tailscale for now works well enough for free.

          Cloudflare agreed is not something I would trust.

            You can get some pretty cheap ones like sub $10/year. My current ones 2 cpu 3.5gb ram 64gb ssd for $33 a year.

              Where are you finding rates like that? Racknerds’ cheapest option is around that price but doesn’t even have 1 full gig of ram.

          I’m so close to doing this. Cloudflare makes me nervous. Have you heard of Rathole? That was recommended to basically do what my cloudflared tunnel is already doing. The only trouble I could see was I was going to have to keep the cloudflared access controls.

      I’m in this boat too, my security is awful, bad practices everywhere, my solution: don’t let it go out in public…
