For CGNAT peers - is there an alternative which is open source and as simple to use as Tailscale?

Join your containers into a WireGuard network on spawn

Personally I use this together with https://github.com/b-m-f/WirtBot/ for keeping everything maintained, but `wg-pod` works with any `wg-quick` compatible config.
After about a year of development WirtBot is now in maintenance mode :)

ETH staking and IP address privacy
1 project | /r/ethstaker | 27 Jan 2021

I have also built https://github.com/b-m-f/WirtBot to make the setup even easier. But this will introduce a third Node that is purely routing traffic, which might be overkill depending on your technical expertise.

I found this https://github.com/hzeller/rpi-rgb-led-matrix, this provides python scripts. Please read through them, and then ask specific questions at each step. If python just looks like gobldegock, I suggest you go through some basic python tutorials docs.python.org has a tutorial page, and no you don't have to complete the whole think just read everything about built-ins and basic syntax (for, if, def, else, etc).
