Genuine question, so please don’t be mean to whoever responds. Better to learn than to judge.

Curious if people who are on Cloudflare are considering any selfhosted alternatives? If not, interested to hear what is a deal breaker in regards to using a service besides Cloudflare. I do hear a lot of praise for Cloudflare when facing DDOS, and always happy to learn more!

    I self-host only private stuff, so there was never a need for anything like cloudflare.

      I am the only user of my network. I don’t host any publicly, forward facing services. After reviewing a lot of options, I settled on Cloudflare for the homelab and on the VPS I use Caddy, Tailscale, Crowdsec, and a few other pieces to make me sleep better at night. LOL
