Any experience with Pangolin? (lemmy.ml)

Hi fellow homelabbers! I hope your day / night is going great.

Just stubled across this self-hosted cloudflare tunnel alternernative called Pangolin.

Does anyone use it for exposing their homelab? It looks awesome, but I've never heard of it before.
Should I be reluctant since it's developed by a US-based company? I mean security-wise. (I'll remove this question if it's too political.)
Does anyone know of alternatives pieces or stacks or software that achieve the same without relying on cloudflare?

Your insights are highly appreciated!

I just switched from cloudflare to pangolin on a racknerd vps. I’m really liking it so far. Very easy to configure. I’ve got three different domains, and a ton of subdomains pointing to different services running on two servers on my lan. I’m loving the authentication, crowdsec, and geoblock features. The community guide for the metrics broke my system (and I didn’t backup any of the yaml files) but I was able to wipe everything and get it up again in about 30 minutes. I have my jellyfin bypassing the pangolin authentication for a few specific IPs so that my relatives can stream to their firesticks. I highly recommend it.
