rift is a self-hosted ngrok alternative built on QUIC. One binary on a VPS, one binary on the client — no accounts, no third-party in the request path.

Distinguishing features vs. other entries in the list:

  • QUIC transport (TLS 1.3 in handshake, no head-of-line blocking between multiplexed tunnels, connection migration across networks)
  • Single binary for both server and client
  • Automatic TLS via Let's Encrypt (or pre-provisioned wildcard certs)
  • HTTP subdomains + TCP port tunnels over one connection
  • WebSockets work transparently
