Towonel: Open Source drop-in Cloudflare Tunnel alternative
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!
