Project mention: anyone else get the “unusual traffic” captcha every single time they search something? how can I fix it? | reddit.com/r/iphone | 2023-03-17
Ah nice. I've heard of some interesting ways people have gotten around paid wifi. One of the more interesting ideas from a few years ago was using DNS as a proxy for general internet traffic, since wifi captive portals generally don't restrict DNS. It was a more work than a VPN and it was certainly slower, but interesting nonetheless.

Project mention: Cloud fare tunnels are still the best thing to use when hosting from home? | reddit.com/r/selfhosted | 2023-02-20

Project mention: Tailscale/golink: A private shortlink service for tailnets | news.ycombinator.com | 2022-12-13
From a purely networking perspective, there are far better solutions than tailscale.
Have a look at full mesh VPNs like:
https://github.com/cjdelisle/cjdns
https://github.com/yggdrasil-network/yggdrasil-go
https://github.com/gsliepen/tinc
https://github.com/costela/wesher
These build actual mesh networks where every node is equal and can serve as a router for other nodes to resolve difficult network topologies (where some nodes might not be connected to the internet, but do have connections to other nodes with an internet connection).
Sending data through multiple routers is also possible. They also deal with nodes disappearing and change routes accordingly.
tailscale (and similar solutions like netbird) still use a bunch of "proxy servers" for that. You can set them up on intermediate nodes, but that have to be dealt with manually (and you get two kinds of nodes).

Project mention: Aggregating multiple 4g connections? (Home internet) | reddit.com/r/homelab | 2023-02-28So you need a server in the middle combining your packets and sending them out from a single IP and port. The OpenMPTCProuter Project can do exactly that.
