I have a small homelab that is not open to the internet. I am considering the following setup. Please let me know if there are any glaring issues or if I am over complicating things.
I want to setup a reverse proxy in the cloud that will also act as a certificate authority. (I want to limit who can access the server to a small group of people.)
I will setup a vpn from a raspberry pi in my home to the reverse proxy in the cloud.
The traffic will pass from the raspberry pi vpn to my homelab.
I am not sure if I need the raspberry pi. I like the cloud as the reverse proxy as I do not have a static IP. I would just get a cheap vps from hetzner or something like that.
I’m not very familiar with either option. I’ll look into both of them. I think cloudflare tunnels have bandwidth limits though and I’ll be hosting jellyfin, so it might eat through the bandwidth quickly.

Have you considered other approaches, such as Tailscale or Cloudflare Tunnels? I think you’re complicating things.
