Is there a good way to self host a federated service at home without port forwarding? Is it possible to use cloudflare tunnels or tailscale funnel and still connect to the federation?

    I would use cloudflare first and foremost. Tailscale doesn’t use public IPs, instead they use cgnat space from rfc6598 inside 100.64.0.0/10 I believe. Though you may be able to open a port or something, it’s not really the intended use of the service and could introduce some unexpected results or exposure.
