Hey! Thank you so much for collecting this awesome list!

I am currently using localtunnel, and it fits my usecase pretty well, although I have doubts about its stability. Can you suggest a service with the following requirements:

  • (if paid) no limits on running tunnels
  • randomly generated subdomains
  • SSL
  • relatively easy way to get generated URL outside of the terminal window with running client

I went through (most) of the services in this list, and unfortunately, I was not been able to find something that will fit my needs.

Thanks!

Actually you're probably more familiar with the various options at this point than I am. It pretty quickly became apparent none of them quite worked the way I wanted, which is why I created SirTunnel and boringproxy for my own use.

That said, does ngrok not cover your needs? I haven't used it heavily so don't know where it falls short.

PS - If you can suggest additional useful information for any of the tools you tried to help future readers it would be greatly appreciated.

Also, if you're comfortable running your own VPS, you could easily SirTunnel to meet all your needs. Check out the source code; there's not much going on in there.
