I’m wondering what to use and I’m pretty beginner at this

Cloudflare. No public exposure to the internet.
Are we not worried about their terms of service? I've been using pangolin
I run multiple enterprise companies through it who are transferring significantly more sensitive data than me. I'm not as strict as some people here, so no, I don't really care. I think it's the best service, especially for free, so until things change, that's what I'm using.
We are, Batman, we are.
I VPN to my network for it.
I expose jellyfin and keycloak to the internet with pangolin, jellyfin user only has read access. Using the sso 🔌 jellyfin listens to my keycloak which has Google as an identity provider(admin disabled), restricting access to my users, but letting people use their google identity. Learned my family doesn't use anything that isn't sso head-to-toe.
It's what we do in the shadows that makes us heroes, kalpol.
First time I hear someone using keycloak for local hosting.
