    Something’s not right. There shouldn’t be a deck-tailscale.sh file. There’s supposed to be a directory named deck-tailscale and a tailscale.sh and some other files inside it.

    Here’s what you do. First, open a terminal like Konsole. Just run the application, don’t open it from the file manager. Then run these commands:

    git clone https://github.com/tailscale-dev/deck-tailscale
    cd deck-tailscale
    sudo bash tailscale.sh
    




  • Managing Wireguard is just one of Tailscale’s features.

    It uses some UDP black magic fuckery to get through NAT and firewalls without having to open ports on the edge. Very useful if you’re behind CGNAT and/or your ISP is a dickhead and locks down the firewall on your router (this is why I use it; eat a dick, Vodafone). If the UDP fuckery is not available, it reverts to simple relay servers. The client can also advertise subnets and route to hosts on it. You could install the Tailscale client on OPNSense/pfSense/OpenWRT and access your entire home network through that one device.

    I seriously doubt that anyone who asks that question doesn’t already have a foregone conclusion, but fine, I’ll indulge you.

    Probably not. If he was, and had been hiding it his entire life, even in the era when he was the youtube star and had zero restraint, why would he slip up those few times, and especially such highly public ways?

    He did and said some shit in his early 20s, and he deserved the criticism at the time, but those incidents weren’t repeated and weren’t part of a pattern. He wasn’t the paragon of virtue and maturity, but I’m willing to bet my left nut that neither are the people who are lining up to crucify him, and the only difference is that he had an audience. The people who aren’t willing to let go of their prejudices after a decade are equally as immature.

    hosting their videos on their own website

    I love that entrepreneurial attitude. If an online service is unsatisfactory, just develop your own software from the ground up and provision the infrastructure from your pocket. Car industry sucks? Just build your own car! GPU prices high? Grab a soldering iron and a handful of sand, how hard could it be?

    Things are always more complex than they appear. The whole point of services like Youtube and Patreon is to offload that complexity onto the provider in exchange for a fee (or some other form of compensation) from the user. Just look at how many early Lemmy instances have gone offline because of the overwhelming financial or administrative burden. Hate the companies all you like, and by all means look for independent solutions, but don’t pretend they offer no value whatsoever.

    Tailscale. It does some UDP fuckery to bypass NAT and firewalls (most of the time) so you don’t even need to open any ports. You can run it on individual hosts to access them directly, and/or you can set it up on one device to advertise an entire subnet and have the client work like a split tunnel VPN. I don’t know about OpenWRT, but both pfSense and OpnSense have built-in Tailscale plugins.

    People are freaking out about their plan to go public, but for the moment, it’s a reliable, high quality service even on the free tier.

    I’ve also used Ngrok and Twingate to access my LAN from outside, but they simply use relay servers instead of Tailscale’s black magic fuckery.
