The simple answer is self-host (or dont host it online at all) if you really care about keeping your data safe. Otherwise, use a provider with a published name and address, and if they leak your data, use the legal system to resolve it.
With no published owner information, YS consider it a honeypot.
As you’ve described it, and from what I have read, its very similar to how tailscale negotiates its connections.
Does seem to be unique to Plex though.
I get how that could work, but what services actually do that? Homeassistant can, but that needs to be setup explicitly for it to work.
How does that work? Do they do something like what tailscale does to negotiate the connection? Can you point me to any doco for how that works?
I dont know that that is true. With cloudflare tunnels, their server.x.y.z will resolve to a cloudlfare IP address, which then tunnels it to their server? The traffic has to hit the cloudflare server, it can’t short circuit that connection? Am I missing something?
I would assume yes, it goes out to cloudflare and back in. You want to setup an internal DNS server on your network, and resolve your servers address to its local one. That way when your outside your network, you use the tunnel, and inside it goes direct.
You can’t receive those emails anymore.
Someone else can.

100% agree, this is probably a soft launch so they can go hard later.
Super scummy.
Smoking is also quite common, it still harmful.
Betting isnt required for sport, millions of kids manage to play sports without betting.
So we’ve established at the onset that Riot-owned broadcast and social channels will stay betting-free, which means no ads, no sponsored segments from betting partners, and no betting partner logos on team jerseys
Good, as it should be.
No mention of age controls, and I’m sure it’ll be the scummiest of gambling companies (tautology?) that signup for this.
Riot has a lot of children who play their games, this is a really disappointing decision from them.
If they can be hidden, like in Windows, I dont really mind if every app has one. I’ll hide the ones I dont care about.
The app dock isnt visible by default, so thats a partitial solution, but I’d prefer to be able to access it directly without opening a menu or overview first.
Steam provides a quick launch menu, thats a good enough reason for me.
Technical issues are worth resolving, but I want the UI to remain the same as the windows one. Its a pattern that works just fine.
Does seem worse IMO. There is nothing wrong with the windows tray, should just copy that and call it done.
Actually, (and I wasn’t aware of this until you mentioned it, so thank you), it does support serverless connections:
So I think between cloud server, self hosted server and direct IP, OP should be covered.
RustDesk (rustdesk.com) is open source, and similar to TeamViewer, and has paid plans, including a paid self hosted option.

Privacy policies are only as good as your ability to legally enforce them. And without a name or address, you’ll struggle to do that against a github account. Even a lawyers name would be a start.
Cloudflare may know their identity, but thats still a gamble.
