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!
EDIT: yall are great! Thank you so much for the replies. I’m going try my luck with pangolin but its good to know I have options.
I see, so Pangolin includes the Tailscale Funnel functionality (which Headscale currently does not), integrates Authentik and Traefik, and sells it as a stand alone service. I guess there’s probably a narrow market for that, though it’s unlikely to be self-hosting. My experience is that any OAuth or RBAC solution is too involved and/or poorly supported by self-hosted applications to see more than a small number self-hosters using it, and those that do are advanced enough users that they would probably just build it themselves with free tools instead.
Pangolin is free for non commercial self-hosting purposes and used quite intensively in the Jellyfin community.
