I find it disappointing that everyone's first suggestion in the selfhosted community is Cloudflare. It seems to run counter to the spirit of selfhosting to hand off the last part to the giant corporation that controls 90% of the Internet.
Most of what Cloudflare does—if it's necessary at all—can be replicated with a cheap (or free) VPS sitting in front of your network on a VPN, and the remainder doesn't matter for most selfhosted use cases.
