Last night instead of going to bed I forgot about daylight saving time and added a statically defined #ipv6 #wireguard mesh between my #homelab servers. Now I can use that instead of #tailscale for the secure data plane. Tailscale is great and I'll probably keep it for the management plane. The way it aggressively idles connections combined with the first packet seemingly always hitting a DERP server makes stuff feel a lot slower than it should. #selfhosted @homelab

    @zrail @homelab I also was firmly on shove data over Tailscale and then I stopped as well. I still use it for mgmt of a VPs and it’s brilliant for that. The back haul for the VPs now is wiregaurd.
