#tailscale

15 posts15 participants1 post today

Learning to setup a DIY ephemeral dev box for my favourite languages while one the go using #scaleway, #tailscale and #terraform / #opentofu..

Why?

Because I have that much time at hand and it’s a fun project that is bottomline identical to what a Blink.sh's Build Beta subscription offers but at the fraction of the cost.

Spin it up at need, safely access it via tailnet only (including a Code-Server with tunnel if needed), shut it down when done and it vanishes and only charges fractions of a cent/hour while it’s up.

And all the while persisting you home / dot files in an encrypted volume snapshot safe at scaleway in France and accessible from Blink or any terminal as easy as a Blink Bluid instance.

(If you’re asking “why don’t they use DevPod/GitPod/CodeSpaces?” - I don’t want to be tied to working on GitHub/Lab projects alone but want a full system if needed)

Hattet Ihr bei #headscale / #tailscale mal das Problem das ssh von Client zu Client nicht (mehr) geht? Das timed bei mir aus, obwohl beide Clients laut Server an Tailnet verbunden sind. Beides Linux, ssh sollte tun, timed aber aus. Any ideas?

If you have used and loved #Tailscale, and you still like the product but want a sensible insurance option to reduce your exposure to potential #enshittification, what *hosted* options have you looked at as alternatives?

Part of the appeal of #Tailscale for me at least was that they provided a really thoughtful UX layer over some existing cool OSS tech like #wireguard.

Also, many of us have tried self-hosting and want to minimise what they self host if at all possible.

MastodonJonathan Gerlach (@JonathanGerlach@mastodon.social)I've been really liking Tailscale, but they just took $160 million in funding and I have a weird feeling that the lenders will want to make that money back plus a profit.

I hope you, our valued customer, are as happy as we are that thanks to the Dark Money Corp, we have the opportunity to squeeze more than $100 million out of you in fees, surcharges and subscriptions as we scramble to make quota for the next tranche of highly speculative capital.

Yours,
fkn #Tailscale, apparently.
