Tailscale gives me access to my home network when I'm not at home. I can be on a train, in another country even, and watch shows streamed off the Raspberry Pi in my home office.
- lucb1e 11mo agoThat's called a VPN Is this like "Band-Aid" that used to be a brand name but now people just use it generically?
- Sanzig 11mo agoTailscale is a bit more than a VPN. It operates in a mesh configuration rather than a traditional VPN concentrator setup. Tailscale's control plane orchestrates NAT traversal for devices on the Tailnet (through techniques like UDP hole punching) and allows them to establish direct Wireguard tunnels between them. That way, there's no VPN concentrator bottleneck because there's no concentrator at all, every device establishes tunnels to every other device.
