I’m curious if anybody else sees tailscale / headscale in the same way that I do — I was avoiding signing up to tailscale because I didn’t want to be locked into a proprietary platform, but since learning that headscale exists and is “good enough”, I’m now happy to be a tailscale customer safe in the knowledge that I can fall back to self-hosting when needed.

(Yes the company _could_ do a sudden 180 and start intentionally breaking compatibility and forbidding that their clients be used with third-party servers - but the risk of that doesn’t seem much different than the risk of an open-source alternative being abandoned)
