Tailscale has worked out really well for me.
I’ve got it setup on my Pi with a subnet router for stuff that can’t run Tailscale easily - like my TrueNAS box.
That way I can access anything on the local subnet when I’m connected to Tailscale on any device
I have with me.

seems like a potentially bad idea, plus it appears it relies on the local firewall, not a network level one ?

💯 We have firewalls setup with our provider and applied to servers based on their roles.
SSH to any @npub1fdq…p95d infrastructure is only possible via our Tailnet - no SSH exposed to the public internet and only the absolute minimum ports are open on the above firewalls.

I’m a huge believer in safe and appropriate immigration, especially for those fleeing harm.
The majority of people coming on small boats are not themselves problematic.
The issue is the criminal smugglers, charging thousands for unsafe crossings.
We’ve seen French police have no power to intervene, and the UK has no true safe routes in for those in need.
Let’s stop demonising migrants, and start looking at how we have a safe, secure, and easy to access asylum system.

what did you move to, if I may ask? My assumption being Affinity products?
