Corporate VPN startup Tailscale secures $230 million CAD Series C on back of “surprising” growth

Pennarun confirmed the company had been approached by potential acquirers, but told BetaKit that the company intends to grow as a private company and work towards an initial public offering (IPO).

“Tailscale intends to remain independent and we are on a likely IPO track, although any IPO is several years out,” Pennarun said. “Meanwhile, we have an extremely efficient business model, rapid revenue acceleration, and a long runway that allows us to become profitable when needed, which means we can weather all kinds of economic storms.”

Keep that in mind as you ponder whether and when to switch to self-hosting Headscale.

I can't. I tried it first and installed it on my phone from f-droid. After opening it up, it connected to an already existing network with other people's old machines from years ago on it. I was horrified.

So then I tried to delete my whole account and couldn't due to an error. I sent them an email about it and they took like two weeks to respond.

It has never been on F-droid. I've been following the service since it started. It didn't even have a mobile app not that long ago.

It's possible I misremembered and got the apk from their website or github. Doesn't change anything though.

I just went back though my emails, I got a reply email from their CTO promising to look into it and they would get back to me, but they never did.
