A core offering of Cloudflare Tunnel is the ability to host web servers through tunnels. Tailscale requires you to run your own reverse proxy on a publicly-accessible node in order to accomplish this.


This is not my experience having recently set up web servers in a cloud virtual network with no inbound ports open. I can tailscale in and connect to web servers behind traefik configured to use the dns-01 challenge. The only way to access these webaps is through tailscale.


Sorry I meant specifically public web servers, ie hosting a website or sharing a Jellyfin server with your family without requiring them to have Tailscale accounts.
