Is there any data limitation going thru cloudflare ? Can I stream plex movies over cloudflare ?

Really found this video informative! I’m also curious if this could be used to allow a locally hosted Unifi controller with multiple remote sites to be hosted without requiring port forwarding. I think the answer is no but I’m curious what your take is on this. It would mitigate the risk of having to have port 8443 forwarded I think but what about 8080 and the like?

I am not sure that it would work properly for the other ports, but it should work for the web interface at 8443.
