  • Pretty simple answer: Wireguard.

    Why? It’s the fastest of them all, works on almost all devices you can imagine, does not rely on any 3rd party like Tailscale with OICD or other IdP. Tailscale has its use when you are behind CGNAT and don’t want to VPS a Wireguard server somewhere with a static IP, other than that, it has no use in my opinion. I’m fully aware that I get downvotes from people who praise the zero trust principals of Tailscale and all the rest, but they always forget that you can do zero trust since decades with any network equipment (VXLAN) and add Wireguard to the mix. You can even run Wireguard in your local network to encrypt unencryptable traffic like NFS.

    Check back in a few hours /u/Silencer306, this comment will have a few if not many downvotes.






  • It has it’s dedicated place, and is my emergency backpack with everything to survive for a few days. It’s simply connected via a sowed in keystone jack. It uses an embedded RPi powered by PoE (via said keystone jack) and auto syncs everything. It mostly only syncs PDF/A that I can use to view on a netbook, in case society collapses (instructions and manuals). Backpack has a small solar array and a 40mAh battery pack. Emergency equipment, knifes, axe, rope, fire kit and all of that. It’s also the backpack I take on trips and hikes, to see its endurance. It’s not meant as a backup your pictures kit, for that I have the four physical locations which are all in different parts of the country.
