I have been using Tailscale VPN with my servers for about 6 months now and I would recommend it to anyone.
I’m running it on both of my Proxmox machines, my laptop, a raspberry pi, and my Android phone. It makes it super easy and secure to access my local services while away from my house.
Very simple set up, minimal initial configuration, and versatile.
There are apps for Linux, Windows, Mac, Android, and iOS.
Is anyone else currently using Tailscale? I’d like to hear what you all think.

No, it isn’t. But there is a self hosted Foss version of it (headscale) that the developers actively support.
The clients are open source, the coordination server isn’t
I run a single headscale node on one of my free Oracle OCI instances, and connect about a dozen devices to it. No fear of adding friends either, since it’s free.
I like it, but it consumes copious amounts of battery on my Android phone. I only use it for 1)
ssh
and 2) services that I don’t want / need to be accessible over the InternetIt’s not self-hosted, I refuse to use anything that relies on any third party
