Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Not really. I use the exit node to forward my “default” traffic through the VPN but I still use tunnels between my end devices too. My wife uses it to print documents from work and hell, I even shut off a lot of services on my LAN and made them Tailscale-only just as a way to force encryption (unnecessarily).
The problem is that it likely will break NAT traversal which means no direct connections.
Tailscale already has VPN integrations. I would recommend that you use that instead.
Tailscale only supports Mullvad VPN and when you do use it you’re stuck with its DNS server. It’s a super basic option and doesn’t allow for much customization.
On the exit node you should be able to setup routing so that traffic goes though a VPN route.
In the end though I honestly don't see much of a use case for VPNs
So you’re just chiming in that people shouldn’t use it because you don’t see the use case for VPNs?
