Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.
Nebula
-
List of ngrok/Cloudflare Tunnel alternatives and other tunneling software and services. Focus on self-hosting.
Nebula - Peer-to-peer overlay network. Developed and used internally by Slack. Similar to Tailscale but completely open source. Doesn't use WireGuard. Written in Go.

JIT WireGuard
(I am a Nebula maintainer.) We recently merged support for gVisor-based services, although it's very new, and I don't know of much experimentation that's been done with it yet: https://github.com/slackhq/nebula/pull/965

Ask HN: What Underrated Open Source Project Deserves More Recognition?
Nebula, originally from Slack[0].
Wireguard rightly gets a lot of attention, but Nebula is a really simple and easy to deploy mesh network that is often overlooked.
It does lack a management GUI and that stuff is very much DIY.

Nebula is Not the Fastest Mesh VPN (But neither are any of the others)
Fair enough about the android mobile client... My use case only involves meshing linux appliances across various networks so we only need the nebula core binaries which are under MIT license

Nebula is an open-source and free-to-use modern C++ game engine
That's not at all confusing with Slack's Nebula. https://github.com/slackhq/nebula

A word of caution about Tailscale
Sounds like a bunch of your pain points are just related to needing an online CA or ICA. But, looking through the Nebula docs I don't know that it supports things like CRL addresses where you could host the CRL, or OCSP responders. Someone got support for an OCSP responder but never submitted a PR with completed code: https://github.com/slackhq/nebula/issues/72

Free Tech Tools and Resources - Multi-clock Display, Networking Tools, Digital Forensics & More
Nebula is a scalable, cross-platform overlay networking tool focused on performance, simplicity, and security. This portable tool is equally adapted for linking a small number of computers or scaling to connect tens of thousands. It integrates encryption, security groups, certificates, and tunneling into a powerful, cohesive connectivity solution. Thanks for the recommendation go to jmeador42.

Would we still create Nebula today?
Replying to my own comment as I can no longer edit it:
The folks over at Slack had an interesting discussion regarding the the "battle of the VPNs" article published by Netmaker I sourced in my parent comment:
https://github.com/slackhq/nebula/discussions/911
-
Tailscale vs. Narrowlink
Interesting. I thought recognized the logo, apparently seems to be a commercial support offering of https://github.com/slackhq/nebula and they support the "nebula" iOS app. I had been using for nebula/defined in the past.

Which overlay network?
Nebula: Is super easy to get running. It uses an interesting angle, working on the service and not just the device level. Unfortunately their NAT support seems to be still quite problematic and I am not going to maintain all those forwarded ports manually. There is a PR to support PCP but even if that ever gets applied I am not sure how well that will play with older routers. While it should be battle proven at slack, the community seems to be not that active. It still has the in-house tool that just got released.

Admin-Friendly Mesh VPN with WireGuard?
After browsing through, I've noticed that three options seem to be gaining traction: Netmaker, wg-easy, and headscale. I'm curious to know if these solutions are interchangeable, and if there are specific reasons to choose one over the others. I'd also like to understand if they are complete stacks, meaning, once set up, could I easily replace one admin GUI with another, or would I need to tear down and rebuild the VPN?

VPN to bypass Country blocms
WireGuard is the solution to everything! It has an app and they can easily login via a QR code that you send them. For the server I would recommend wg-easy, there you can manage all user accounts in a web interface.
-
Wireguard without VPS?
I use this, https://github.com/WeeJeWel/wg-easy

What are some security/VPN features you would like to see in UniFi Network?
Dashboard with access to the QR and config files for clients as well as bandwidth data. Even something as simple as wg-easy would be great.

Build your own private WireGuard VPN with PiVPN
I run wg-easy https://github.com/WeeJeWel/wg-easy for this sort of thing. I use the docker container, and it's great. "Just works".
Also, unrelated, I just decided I don't like the sentiment of "PiMyProjectName" branding. I know most projects don't just run on a Pi, and that the intent is to say "you can self-host thing", but at this point if you want to run a home server sort of thing, just buy some cheap 100-200 dollar minipc thing. That's how much you'd pay for a Pi now anyway, and it comes with such great features as:
* just establishing an ssh connection doesn't take multiple seconds
* the ethernet doesn't go over a usb hub
* it doesn't run on an sd card that is going to fail within a year
I'm pretty dismissive of ARM chips for homelab stuff at this point. There's super cheap minipcs with "real" processors that will just destroy even an expensive ARM board.
Pi's shine with their ability to run both a real/full Linux and also do gpio type stuff that otherwise is usually an arduino board. I don't have anything against low-level programming but damn is it just a lot more fun to do in python. I love the Rpi zero w 2 products for this, just enough juice to run wifi and a python loop, plus the gpio pins. Too bad they've been sold out for literally years.

[Wireguard] Le serveur ne peut pas faire un ping au client
J'ai installé Wireguard Server sur un VPS en utilisant [https://github.com/weejewel/wg-easy Peer to Peer Ping, mais je ne peux pas ping-ping à des pairs du serveur.

Using AWS EC2 as a proxy server to bypass a Minecraft VPNGuard server block or run a Minecraft server from your home while hiding the public IP
To expand: I'd recommend wireguard it's super easy to run with docker, openvpn is way more annoying to setup The Github page for wg-easy docker image

Today is a lovely day to setup my new media server. X220 i5, 512GB msata SSD (slow af), 1TB internal HDD, and another terabyte in the dock. Installing Ubuntu server 22.04 LTS. Any fun ideas for what to do with it, aside from a Jellyfin server and samba share?
