  1. headscale

    An open source, self-hosted implementation of the Tailscale control server

    https://github.com/juanfont/headscale not to mention but Tailscale has a very good culture, I’m sure they would give notice if they pull the rug. There are also many alternatives such as Zerotier and more are showing up every day and open source options.

  3. Nebula

    A scalable overlay networking tool with a focus on performance, simplicity and security

    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

  4. wireguard-vyatta-ubnt

    WireGuard for Ubiquiti Devices

  5. tailscale-android

    Tailscale Android Client

    The Android client seems to be open source. No idea why the iOS/other ones aren’t. https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale-android

  6. tailscale

    The easiest, most secure way to use WireGuard and 2FA.

    It's a feature of the client, and that is open source: https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale

  7. Killed by Google

    Part guillotine, part graveyard for Google's doomed apps, services, and hardware.

    There really should be a website like this that keeps track of popular & useful "free" things, documents the things they promise, and then tracks the date at which they turn into crap. A bit like https://killedbygoogle.com/, but for the enshittification of cloud services.

  8. action-dnclient

    Setup and enroll dnclient on a GitHub Action workflow

    If you prefer Nebula there's also a managed SaaS offering for that : Defined Networking (https://www.defined.net/)
