It’s a 10 minute read when it should probably be a 2 minute read, likely due to LLMs fluffing it up (I got that vibe from skimming it). But what do you all think, is there anything in here that would compel you to switch from your current VPN solution to this?

I always get so close to just setting up wireguard and being done with it. I barely ever change the devices on my tailnet, anyway.

I do have a couple friends on my tailnet to give access to some stuff, so that might be annoying to migrate. That and Tailscale handling all the other networking stuff I might not even know about like cgnat.
