Just getting started with self hosting. I was wondering if anyone had experience with Cloudflare Tunnels for exposing their services to the internet. I like the simplicity and security it offers but don’t love the idea of using Cloudflare. Like, I’m self hosting for a reason lol. Any tips would be greatly appreciated!
For context, I’m running all of my services in a very small k8s cluster and my priorities are mostly security then maintainability. Thanks yall!
What is the advantage of using a tunnel vs dynamic DNS directly to your home IP address?
It only requires an outbound connection, which is needed if you’re stuck on CGNAT. It also provides DDoS protection and hides your IP address. It comes with the huge downside of using Cloudflare though.
