Yeah, the centralization of public Internet infrastructure around Cloud flare has been concerning, not only as a single point of failure but also in terms of consolidation of trust.

As a prior student workout a public IP deep behind several NATs, with little funds for self hosting hobbies, these kinds of tunnel services were a handy gateway in getting started.

Although, I hope ISP adoption of IPv6 or cheaper bandwidth quotas for VPS providers help compete on this front for self hosting networking.

    @ruffsl I have no bandwidth quota on my vps's, only memory and disk. See eskimo.com/services/virtual-pr… further our shared hosting is extremely robust, this friendica site runs on it, friendica.eskimo.com/ and runs around 7-16 hits/second (between slow and peak times) and response time is generally between 240-500ms which is better than most major providers. It is doable, for me the big issue is you are proxying https, is that data getting un-encrypted / re-encrypted in the chain? If so do you really want them looking at all of your traffic?
