Thanks! 🤙

Good for 100 devices! Wow

I saw that! So is this like a self-hosted VPN? I’m going to read the how-it-works page but I can’t wait. 😆

Yes correct

If you don't trust tailscale then you can use headscale

Head great things about that havent tried it tho

I use it all the time for all the 3D printers and other nodes

Works excellent. & also have SSH enabled so I can do the fine-detailed things

& on one desktop I have full desktop view as if I'm sitting there

Amazing

Awesome can’t wait to try it out. 😎

Headscale has some limits around ACL functionality that the tailscale coordinator has, and obviously doesn't have a flashy full-featured admin interface, but it more than gets the job done for a small user network. Mine's been going for at least a few years.

Tailscale alone is pretty safe. They'll know your device & network layout, and how much traffic each uses, but nothing more granular than that. Technically, you can do a lot with it running from a home server & on your phone on the go.
