How's the simplicy of setting up and accessing cloudflare tunnels over a VPN for the near-totally computer illiterate, in comparison to Tailscale?
Part of setting up a homelab and self-hosting more and more of my digital life has been working toward being able to offer family and very-close friends an off-ramp from the world of cloud-controlled data and computing. Especially among family, there are some folks who will not be able to easily grok things even you, I, and casual power uses would consider "basic."
yea, most certainly! from a setup perspective tunnels are much easier to configure, just need a domain and an agent container that routes to your services. To have family and friends access web services is easy too - there is support for email totp, certificates, passwords, etc. so you'll definitely find what suits you. Vpn is still required the monent you're looking into higher bandwidth requirements, but for services like expenseowl (one-off and quick operations), tunnels are free and easy
