You can create a tunnel from a cheap VM (or appropriately sized set of VMs) in a cloud.

It's a different, new calculus. The result is still that you have the same server power in your home, if that's what you want.

No IPv6 support? Still? That’s the real problem if so.

It's not so bad IMO. I self-host a lot but I use a mesh VPN, tailscale to get to it. It's much safer not having my stuff exposed to the whole internet, I don't need to have incoming ports open, I don't care if my IP changes etc.

I prefer mesh vpn because it's an extra authentication layer that Cloudflare tunnels don't have. But if you need to offer services publicly it's a good option true.

Can tailscale connect to hosts behind CGNAT?
