I read a comment on here some time ago where the person said they were using cloudflared to expose some of their self-hosted stuff to the Internet so they can access it remotely.

I am currently using it to expose my RSS feed reader, and it works out fine. I also like the simplicity of Cloudflare’s other offerings.

Any thoughts on why cloudflared is not a good idea? What alternatives would you suggest? How easy/difficult are they to setup?

    I dont use it, but video streaming is against their TOS. Other than that I just read good experience with them

      Pretty sure that’s only if you use their proxy service on your domain. Regular, non-proxied, DNS should not have any restrictions like that.

      I believe this is old information and any restrictions around serving none HTML content has been removed from their terms of service related to cloud flare tunnels.
