Playing around with a new self-host NAS OS, finally thought about Tailscale. But, I see it wants a login to an account. Checking online, seems I have to use Google, Apple, MS, Github or OIDC (which iassume costs money based on the site).

So how tf y’all setting to your tail scale stuff? I’m not using a big brother us tech account for auth on this thing. Think I’d rather go back to regular wireguard if that’s the case.

Edit: OK I see you can use regular email. It didn’t load the webpage correctly the first time or I missed it. Odd. Anyway, I do don’t want an account add I don’t want to risk any data compromise at some point

    I avoided tailscale for so long because I was already using wireguard and I didn’t know you could self-host with headscale. But once I started using it with headscale the mesh design really is a big improvement to usability. I don’t miss having to carefully manage my config files and ip route rules.

    I need to get setup with app connectors and then I think it’ll finally be a high enough wife-usability factor for me to remove some things I still have exposed over the internet.
