Comment on Is they're an easy way to make my Jellyfin accessible outside of my home network

  My understanding is that there is no hard limit. At some point they will decide “this is business level traffic” at which point they will start harassing you to purchase a business plan.

  That cutover point is unknown. I’ve never even seen an estimation of when it happens, so it could very well be the type of traffic instead of the amount.

  They also only allow HTTP traffic for the free tier, which is another way they push you towards business tiers.

    I don’t think that’s true. I’m pretty certain all of my domains are HTTPS only, but maybe that’s because I own the domain? Does cloudflare offer free domain names for tunneled traffic?

      HTTPS traffic is still HTTP traffic. There’s just an encryption layer in there.

      And yes cloudflare absolutely supports https.

        Okay. Carry on. I was thinking that you meant the free tier didn’t support HTTPS encrypted traffic. I didnt want someone to rule out that option based on a false assumption. Sorry for the confusion.

  Can I ask, how much of a limit does the free tier have on bandwidth if you’re doing something like hosting Jellyfin?

  In the past, Argo Tunnel has been priced based on bandwidth consumption as part of Argo Smart Routing, Cloudflare’s traffic acceleration feature. Starting today, we’re excited to announce that any organization can use the secure, outbound-only connection feature of the product at no cost. You can still add the paid Argo Smart Routing feature to accelerate traffic.

  Cloudflare Zero Trust pricing is based on number of users. Unlike some of our peers, Cloudflare does not charge for increased bandwidth, number of app connectors, or volume of threats mitigated.

  I honestly cannot find a hard bandwidth cap. Now, that is not to say that if you are sharing your JF with 20 other users, that they would not frown on that. However, from what I can tell, there is no real bandwidth cap.

  On my mobile, but to give you an idea, I stream Navidrome probably 12-15 hours a day. I really don’t think they have a bandwidth limit per se, but when I get back to my desktop where I can actually see, lol, I can do some digging for you.
