  I use Tailscale to run pihole in the cloud on gcp as my DNS server. Pennies a day - $0.38 in January so far. This would definitely be free-tier level stuff, but for some reason they are charging me for it and it’s not worth my time to figure out why given the low cost. I’m not using it as an exit node (haven’t gone down the hole of traffic scanning or anything like that), but that would make it more expensive. It is nice - I can set up all my devices for pihole and block distractions, and have Tailscale on my wife’s computer to switch on when I’m using it. She doesn’t get frustrated I’ve broken the internet when she uses it and I flip Tailscale off. I’ve also got a desktop that I can Connect into from my iPad on the road. Setting up a dev environment in a cloud platform and adding it with Tailscale would be trivial.
