Nice setup.

But isn't this a little too tied to Cloudflare?

Caddy as a reverse proxy on that VPS would also give us free HTTPS. The downside is less security because no CF tunneling.

You could put Authentik in front. It does Cloudflare stuff on VPS.

Are there other services that provide the similar offering as Cloudflare that could be switched to in case they changed policy (eg. removed the free teir)? I.E. is there any mitigation to Cloudflare lock-in?
