@timbray @evan sure thing! I'll draft something shortly. In the meantime, the high-level explanation is you install the Cloudflare daemon to tunnel traffic from the DO instance to a CF endpoint, without exposing any ports, or the instance IP address. CF docs here -> https://developers.cloudflare.com/cloudflare-one/connections/connect-apps/install-and-setup/tunnel-guide/remote/#set-up-a-tunnel-remotely-dashboard-setup

@timbray @evan Cloudflare also has free basic DDoS and WAF features and is a solid CDN. Reduces some risks of hosting a server on the internet.

@timbray @evan I’m running my own instance from the DO one-click setup. Smooth for the most part. If you pick an instance type that’s too small, you may run into memory constraints and need to setup a swap file and re-run the setup. I have my instance configured with Cloudflare Argo/Tunnel and have the instance itself completely locked down.
