Hello everybody,

I bought a domain name on Hover.com and wanted to know how I can connect my homelab to it. So far I've got the domain connected to Cloudflare but I have absolutely no idea how to go about getting everything set up on the networking side of things. Does anybody have some useful tips/guides/videos that could help?

Put it behind cloudflare and look in reverse proxies. By far the easiest to get started with is nginx reverse proxy. It has a nice UI. Next move up to traefik or other reverse proxy solutions.

I've got it set up with Cloudflared Tunnel now, but I noticed that I wouldn't be able to use Jellyfin without breaking TOS. Would using Traefik or Nginx Proxy Manager work to bypass that?
