Using Yggdrasil as a mesh VPN for your devices could be a great use case.
From a quick search it seems you do not even need a static IP address [0]
I am not familiar with Yggdrasil and can't wrap my hear around how this is possible !

- scottyeager 2y agoTo join the larger public Yggdrasil network, you need to peer with at least one publicly reachable node. Most likely that machine has a static IPv4 address. There are a number of such nodes operated by volunteers, and they enable the magic that allows any device to join the network and immediately start receiving inbound traffic from the rest of the network. By opening an outbound connection to the public node, a channel is created for traffic to flow back to the non public node.
- ravenstine 2y agoThis is what I do at home. That way I don't have to fiddle with my router. This paid off in a way I didn't expect; when I got TMobile home internet I found out the router has almost no configuration, but all my devices could still be reached via their IPv6 addresses on my private Yggdrasil network.
