> They enable you to move your selfhosted services from expensive, slow VPSes you don't control to fast devices in your own home[4]. IMO this is strictly better than a VPS in terms of privacy and data control. How is trusting your network entry point to Cloudflare (or whoever) any better than having it at a VPS? At least with the VPS you know what's happening inside the box. Here's a better solution: Get a free/cheap VPS. Setup a Wireguard tunnel from your home server to it. Slap a reverse proxy on the VPS that forwards internet traffic through the tunnel to your home server.

They're about the same on privacy. > Here's a better solution: Get a free/cheap VPS. Setup a Wireguard tunnel from your home server to it. Slap a reverse proxy on the VPS that forwards internet traffic through the tunnel to your home server. Way too difficult for the users I'm trying to reach.
