Proposal to Fork and Maintain ngrok about ngrok HOT 4 CLOSED

Why not just use other free and open source alternatives - https://github.com/anderspitman/awesome-tunneling. Personally, I work on the project behind zrok.io which is on the list.

The impact of ngrok remains significant, as evident from your use and my response. Despite its closure, I aim to elevate the open-source version to match its capabilities.

Right, we agree it's significant... but why invest all your time into code which hasn't been touched in 7 years, and admits it has serious reliability issues as well as crashes, and when you would be fighting with Ngrok 2.0 org (who has $50M) for the 'brand' when you can invest into FOSS alternatives? For example, the aforementioned zrok.io has 1 full-time developer and other helping, it was built in a way that makes building new features quicker (incl. HA coming soon, already have Golang SDK, NodeJS and Python soon), has many people in production who say its stable, and has a grander vision??
