Centralization is bad for everyone everywhere.
That bring said… I just moved my homeserver to another city… and I plugged in the power, then I plugged in the ethernet, and that was the whole shebang.
Tunnels made it very easy. No port forwarding no dns configuration no firewall fiddling no nothing.
Why do they have to make it so so easy…

Ip address doesn’t expose where you live.

Tunnels stop you from opening a port so nothing is exposed openly to the internet1 but it does not keep your ip private2.
This is also incorrect.
- The entire purpose of CF tunnels is to expose sites on the internet
- CF tunnels (and services like it e.g. ngrok) rely on shared proxy servers that forward traffic based on HTTP host headers (which is why you can’t forward arbitrary TCP traffic). The IP of the site will therefore have the shared IP of the company’s proxy server instead of your own.
