I previously bought a VPS from RD for $22/year with 3T of traffic per month, which I thought was a good deal.
However, I found this on GitHub that allows you to build a free proxy node based on Cloudflare (CF) as long as you have a domain.
Features: Free, long-term availability, stable, and fast.
In actual testing, YouTube 4K runs without any pressure, even when tested via a mobile hotspot. It would likely be even smoother on home broadband.
This is claimed to be the most powerful Edgetunnel solution that combines the strengths of many others!
I bought a top-level domain on CF for $5/year and subscribed to the free hosting plan. I set up automatic domain renewal for peace of mind. Here is how to set it up if you have a CF domain:
1. First, the GitHub address is here
2. Set up in Cloudflare → Create KV space, customize the name
Almost all operations below are on this website, Cloudflare. The address is here, and you can also buy domains here. I'll skip the domain purchase method as it's very simple and you can explore it yourself.
3. Create Pages
4. After completing the settings, click into the created Pages to set the account and password
5. Bind your domain in Pages (you can use a subdomain like the www. prefix)
6. OK, easy, all done!
There are two domains on the deployment page. Adding /admin to the end of either allows you to enter our node subscription panel.
