I am looking something to connect to my server from outside my local network.
I am on a shared IP and my ISP doesn’t have port forwarding.
Tailscale is probably your best option.
Cloudflare Tunnels are black magic and exactly what you’re looking for:

Free, no need to self host a server somewhere externally. Can even be used for SSH!
I am upvoting this - also moved to Cloudflare from ngrok it’s much simpler to use
Do you have any external server available to you? If yes you could use that to set up a VPN connection or SSH tunnel.
frp, or just anything on awesome-tunnel at GitHub list

I use zerotier. It’s excellent.
+1 this is what I use
OpenVPN
I use headscale and headscaleui but I’ve heard things about net bird and netmaker
zrok
Yggdrasil Network might be an alternative.
It’s a breeze to set up, just be mindful about setting up your firewall and allowed keys, depending on your use case.
I use tail scale to get on the LAN and Rustdesk for desktops, webuis or SSH once in.
If you already own a domain name, you could use Cloudflare tunnels using cloudflared (it’s free).
If you are fine with ipv6, I’d use yggdrasil.
Just install it on any number of devices and each of them become part of a single «local» ipv6 network.
