i learned how to use wireguard late last year... so cool to have your own personal VPN, not just VPN but all my devices can talk over this same channel so it really is like a ... virtual, private network... even when my mobile is on 4G it can directly connect to my other devices

I have used tailscale for this in some situations and its free :)

start9 also lets you run tailscale on it

i used to wish i could set up SSH tunnels back in the day, but they are so clunky

this installer script is so dead simple you will never want to live without wireguard tunnels ever again

a few more pieces of tooling and IMO this is essential infra gear... especially a simple script to set up an SSH connection that only goes over WG, so you don't get endlessly spammed by SSH login scanners

wireguard is so dead simple i can't begin to reccommend enough to learn how to set it up

it uses much the same cryptography as nostr also, i think it uses faster ChaCha CSPRNG (rather than AES)
