So you don’t want to port-forward on your home router or have Cloudflare decrypt all your traffic? Check out Towonel.

Most open source Cloudflare Tunnel alternatives involve setting up a VPS, terminating TLS there on a reverse proxy, then setting up a Wireguard tunnel to your server at home.

Towonel is different: it does not decrypt your traffic on the VPS and you can easily share one, so not every self-hoster has to buy and maintain a VPS.

Check it out!

    It’s interesting OP. I use the evil Cloudflare Tunnels/Zero Trust, and I’m pretty much sold on it, much to the chagrin of others here. Yes, there are caveats, pros and cons. Even tho I am sold on the product, I would entertain a clone/fork/rewrite if it gave me everything that Cloudflare Tunnels/Zero Trust along with the security features. I’ll do some reading once the blog is back up.
