L-Theanine has a noticeable effect when I drink my morning coffee, it totally eliminates the jittery effects and smooths it out.
I've tried a lot of CBD products and some work VERY well (Feals, Soul) and some might as well be gummy bears (Cornbread Hemp). I generally disbelieve "internet" PR claims as well, but the two I mentioned are legit.
I'll eat 3 Feals gummies or 1 Soul "Out of Office" quad, and it rocks me. (M, 40's, 6', 170lbs).
Something to keep in mind too is that ChatGPT's model is from September of 2021, and so, as it will state quite clearly, it "has no knowledge of the world after that date."
I asked Bing's Search AI the same question and it claims that it updates itself every day to stay current on the latest news and happenings.
2 years is a LONG time in our current society, so keep that in mind when it provides answers.
And even if everything is secure right now, you cannot guarantee this stays the case in the future. By using the "tailscale ecosystem" you are locking yourself into a provider that can change the ecosystem (clients, services, servers) or put things behind a paywalls anytime.
I can't (and refuse) to live my lie by "what ifs." If they do any of those things, it's easy enough to pivot to the 3 or 4 other providers our there, like ZeroTier, who offer the same thing.
My hope is if they do, the FOSS community will have gotten their act together and built a capable replacement, which is usually the case.
"Inspired by Tailscale"
So, before Tailscale there wasn't a solution. Now we have one, but it's yet another tool we have to manually manage.
They could, but let's cross that bridge when we get to it. You're trying to justify the dislike of a product because of what they might do. That's a pretty weak argument.
Just use wireguard. It really isn't that hard.
I love WG and use it extensively, but the attraction of Tailscale (and why I use it) is that it takes disparate concepts and gives you a nice visual control panel to manage them and see the status of all your devices in one place.
Nothing. Absolutely nothing exists for Wireguard that does even some of that, which doesn't also cost money.
I don't think Wireguard is even capable of the 'DERP' server concept to get around NAT limitations.
So no, you can't 'just use Wireguard' to accomplish what Tailscale does.
