Recommended or best tunneling services for Minecraft? like ngrok or playit
I've always been interested in this side of networking, and I've never found a sort of definite tunneling list besides the awesome tunneling list which is not specifically geared for Minecraft.

ngrok isnt made for mc soo
and very much isnt great for any big amount of players as it has a 1 gb bandwidth limit
playit.gg is quick to setup, but has had networking issues for some
wait, ngrok has a bandwith limit?
yes
always thought it had none
what about cloudflare tunnel?
requires all users to download cloudflared etc
only seen those in the US regions, but for me I live in Asia so I don't really get those problems
well then, what's stopping you from using playit.gg
playit does have a couple of downtimes, though its quite good for what it's trying to do
i just like to look for alternatives just incase
can always get a external host and use velocity
but i highly recommend getting a vps like oracle cloud or buying mc server hosting from #marketplace
Vouch this. I'm also looking at something I can selft host.
although selfhosting has multiple issues
ill try to get a vps later, since right now I'm not trying to do smth like that yet
selfhosting does have issues like security and etc but it's a good option for smaller servers
if just hosting mc, getting a vps is not a great idea
eh at smaller servers imo its even more pointless
you can get away with paying like 6 bucks a month to host a small server
also if you need the tunnel to hide ip, and dont need bedrock, you can use tcpshield free tier
though, for my friends here in Asia and etc we don't really spend money online so we try to pretty much do everything for free
plus, currencies can get quite wonky
Cloudflare tunnel is very good for private servers
It uses the same infastructure as Cloudflare Spectrum
@caiknoritori
Yes, every player will have to install cloudflared
But that's just a downside that you can't prevent
But I can assure you cloudflare has the lowest latency of them all since they have servers everywhere
Hey, have you found a solution? Because I have the same problem. The playit.gg is good but 200+ ping is wild
