Depends on the use case. Cloudflare tunnels are great for accessing services, but not your network. I have a dockerised vscode instance behind a cloudflare tunnel attached to a personal domain that uses white listed emails as authorisation. Fantastic set up, can access my coding environment from anywhere with an internet connection as long as I can click the verification link in my emails.

To access my network itself though, wireguard is better. I just use pivpn (coupled with pihole for on the go adblock) on a rpi.
