For folks that are unable to port forward on the local router (eg CGNAT) I made this post on doing it via a VPS. I've scoured the internet and didn't find a complete guide.

surely better than Google

This contradicts your threat model comment, though. If you fear Google's access to your data, you fear nation states, or hate Google. Cloudflare is in the same boat for size, scope, and US ownership.

Obviously I'm not avoiding it all together, but I'm taking a step in the right direction.

And it's not just replacing Google by CF, because CF has much less access in comparison as I explain.

you can deploy some zero trust models in your setup, and eliminate the threat even further. for example end to end encryption

Oh yes, wasn't trying to say it was a bad decision at all. If it fits your threat model, and it makes life easier, it's probably the right choice.
