I’ve got an extra and don’t know what to do with it. I feel like its bad to pull power unexpectedly once a week though. Especially with a single HDD storage setup. I’d like to setup a RAID config, but its a 28TB drive and additional drives would cost me about $$$$$$$.

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.

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?

This may or may not help, but I went through the exact same sort of struggles that you did when I first started. Setting up all this was my first forray into Linux and learning about permissions and file systems was a hurdle but having conquered that my primary issues were always caused by one of the following:

• file path mapping
• permissions
• port routing in gluetun
• gluetun/mullvad incompatibilities

Now that I actually seem to have a handle on all this…mind you, I’m no expert, but I can walk people through it in plain english. I eventually ended up switching to Proton VPN and use cloudflare tunnels to access my services from outside the network.
