So, with the Cloudflare outage, I have found my self hosted services are not accessible outside of the home. I use a SWAG reverse proxy from linuxserver.io and bought my domain through cloudflare. I'm fairly new at this stuff, so is this a secure way of doing things? Does cloudflare have access to my data? I'm fairly new at this, so I apologize if this is a silly question. Is there some way to self host what cloudflare does?

I'm pretty sure Cloudflare requires you to use their nameservers if you purchase a domain through them. So you would need to transfer your domain to another registrar first. I could be wrong though. I'm not an expert on this stuff and prefer to just use a dynamic DNS service instead of paying for a domain.
