I am now hosting localtunnel.me for this project so it should work like before. The only difference is that I'm handing out subdomains under the domain *.loca.lt instead of *.localtunnel.me (that's because I don't have full DNS control and without it can't get a free wildcard cert for the domain without). Let me know if you run into any issues.

@theaklair The original maintainer isn't interested in investing his time into hosting localtunnel.me anymore so he's let other volunteers host it. I've taken over from @Pirngruber as of last week + added some extra things to the server to fight phishing abuse.

Also, I've spotted that currently @Pirngruber got localtunnel.me domain name and it redirects to https://pirngruber.github.io/localtunnel-www/.
Is that okay and @Pirngruber really supposed to host the domain name, or is that an act of fraud?

Any update on this please

This is repo is no more active. You can use ngrok.
I have seen lot of corporate network blocking ngrok and similar sites.

If you have your own person domain.
