i've been tempted to use that too, though overtime i've come to suspect Cloudflare as much as I do any other big provider. I then considered using Tailscale, but in the end just DIY'd my own Wireguard bc my setup for it is very small (ie just me until I can convince my partner she might want to access music/movies away from home).
I use Cloudflare only for external access, and have a local IP set for my domains for access within my network so Cloudflare is bypassed.
I have used tailscale on my phone, but it kills my battery when doing nothing. When my phone is running flat it would report 30-50% of the battery was used by tailscale, and I had barely used my phone that day.
So now I have some things set up with Cloudflare, and some internal only I can access with Tailscale by temporarily enabling it and doing the thing I want then disabling again.
