  • Fair question. It’s definitely within my ability to “just” swap to something else, I’d prefer something self hosted that’s foss. I will do it at some point, cf was a bit of a stop gap for me.

    CF tunnels are similar to reverse proxies I believe. I started using their quick tunnels to expose things to the web and I found it very easy. A few things I wanted to host needed domains so I bought a domain from cf and get access to the permanent tunnels. Their tools are good and I know them from being the company that you call when you get ddos’d. I figured it would keep me safer while I was still figuring things out.

    I feel like in my case I used them because of my ignorance. I know of openvpn i’ll look into it.













  • I’m in Perth where this cable will go. We do occasionally play with Chinese players it’s happened in a few games not a lot though. It’s mostly SEA players. WA is in this weird spot for gaming because all of the game companies put there servers in melb or sydney and we get shafted on ping. Because of the time difference if you play late at night and there aren’t enough players you often get pushed to SEA servers. We get a lot of Indos and Singaporeans on our servers too. Will be interesting to see if we end up playing with more Saffas.
