Title. Proxy managers and dashboards for me. The first one because “I’m not working on NASA lmao” and the second one, “It’s not minimal enough”.

Tailscale completely negated and desire I’ve ever had to run any kind of proxy or VPN. The setup tool all of 30 seconds to make an account, and then like 15-20 seconds per client. I set it up once several months ago and I completely forgot about it…it’s just quietly working in the background, completely transparent to me.
I only rolled my own Wireguard VPN because I wanted to learn how things worked on the backend - I’ve suggested Tailscale to many other people, its just a really well designed product.
It’s astonishing to me how much they’re giving away for free.
To be fair, OpenVPN was annoying to setup. But with wg-easy docker, I’d argue it’s faster to set up than tailscale and no accounts necessary. You do need to forward one port
I definitely spent a good hour setting up tailscale on my GF’s mac and had to fiddle with non-advertised cli options to expose local services from other machines. However, wireguard on a mac is supposedly harder to set up compared to tailscale
