Alternatives to CloudFlare? - Lemmy

Hey is there any alternatives to CloudFlare reverse proxies? I want to hide my server IP but not share everything with CF…

You could try Tailscale? It creates a secure tunnel to your server so you don't have to connect it to the internet. Not sure if that checks all your boxes though.

I was looking into Tailscale, but it got me a little worried. I’m not very knowledgeable, so I hope someone can correct me

They don’t allow ssh, so you have to give your keys over them and they manage your ssh connection? That seems idiotic. Surely that can’t be correct?

I’m my use case, I was wanting to rsync to an off-site Synology from a Linux box. Synology also doesn’t allow ssh over their VPN service - frustrating.

You can always use something like SSHwifty It retains your logins through your browser’s session data and never on your server, but it will allow you to remote into your local system from anywhere on the WWW if you desire to do so. With Tailscale, once you are connected into your Tailnet, you can pretty much SSH into any of your devices as long as the subnet sharing flag is turned on I believe. I’ve never had any issues with mine not allowing any SSH connections.
