Cjdns Alternatives

cjdns reviews and mentions

• Tailscale has raised $160M
  7 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 8 Apr 2025

  Everyone is commenting on the HN headline, no one on the actual announcement:

  > Building the New Internet

  (Insert mandatory reference to Silicon Valley here :))

  > We think there’s a better way forward. We're calling it identity-first networking.

  I would love to see this. Every day I have to stare at YAML files with IP addresses in them is a day I will never get back. I wish cjdns[0] had succeeded already but oh well, now I hope the Tailscale guys will!

  This sub is not about TOR and all the seediness that goes on there but rather about creating darknets, by which we/they mean mesh networks and encrypted networks using tools like https://github.com/cjdelisle/cjdns/

• Question for Network Admins, do you use IPv6?

  One of my favorite projects in IPv6 space is the CJDNS project: LINK TO GITHUB

  From a purely networking perspective, there are far better solutions than tailscale.

  Have a look at full mesh VPNs like:

  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).

  I'm excited about P2P/decentralized/distributed overlay networks. Still catching up so would be grateful for tips on resources.

  Pinecone[0][1], newer initiative made by former Yggdrasil[2] maker(s).

  CJDNS[3].

  AIUI CJDNS relies on intermediary high-uptime discoverable router nodes which is what is motivating Pinecone. POKT[4][5] to CJDNS seems like what Filecoin is to IPFS.

  I'm yet to get around to doing the groundwork of grokking more established solutions like B.A.T.M.A.N. and how all these pieces fit together,

  I know there is the Whitepaper. Maybe I miss the part, but I am looking how the path/next Hop is generated.
