Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

What about Pangolin? Or, are you thinking of other aspects?
That's only one very small component of what cloudflare does.
We were affected by the recent issues and spent some time working out alternatives to all the features we use. It was daunting....
Cloudflare is a massive cdn, so it's point is to front end traffic not just doing routing.
The problem is to get anything close to cloudflare you'd need massive scale and networking ability.
Like self hosting containers or vms. There's a point you have to go to the cloud
You might want to be more specific, cloud flare has a lot of different products, and you're getting answers with differing assumptions.
For the self hosted focus, I use tail scale already, and when (not if) that company gets shitty, I will switch to head scale, or a competitor, or straight wire guard (plus firewall etc).
But I also run web sites on cf, and there's no real alternative, definitely not for free. I don't have hundreds of millions to spend on the CDN part, for starters.
