    Cloudflare Quick Tunnels have existed for more than 5 years (yes, including the anonymous quick tunnels). I copy-pasted the url of the HN link in archive.org, see for yourself: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;web.archive.org&#x2F;web&#x2F;20211202005430&#x2F;http:&#x2F;&#x2F;try.cloudflare.com&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;web.archive.org&#x2F;web&#x2F;20211202005430&#x2F;http:&#x2F;&#x2F;try.cloudf...

    Is a new vibe-coded landing page for a 5-year old product really worthy of being on the front page nowadays? There should at least be a [2021] in the title.

      Didn&#x27;t these used to be called Argo Tunnels a long time ago? I think Argo Tunnels got repositioned for connecting to origin servers without needing an incoming connection to the origin but I thought they originally did something like this&#x2F;ngrok

      Yeah, I just checked the page &gt;can connect their server to the Internet with Argo Tunnel for free

        There was a problem with the name: toxic mine trailings weren&#x27;t what was wanted. <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Argo_Tunnel" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Argo_Tunnel
