This sounds great, I think it's exactly what I was looking for recently for hosting arbitrary services on my tailnet. I figured out a workaround where i created a wildcard certificate and dns cname record pointing to my raspberry pi on my tailnet but this could be potentially simpler
i like tailscale but i notice that i get more weird network blippy latency issues when using it. i used to always have my phone connected to my tailnet so i could use my dns, etc. but always occasionally something won’t load right and i have to refresh again couple of times.
It tended to happen a lot more when switching between wifi / cellular when leaving and entering buildings, etc.
I recently found Tailscale when searching to control my home lab when traveling and have been amazed by how simple it is we can create a private network.
Very cool, I love Tailscale. I use it to connect together a VPS, desktop computer, phone, and a few laptops. My main use case is self-hosted Immich and Forgejo so this is great.
This would be great if it supported wildcards for ingress controllers. A service foo would give you foo.tailYYYY.ts.net as well as *.foo.tailYYYY.ts.net.
But, what found particularly interesting on that page was the following:
>" Some especially cruel networks block UDP entirely
, or are otherwise so strict that they simply cannot be traversed using STUN and ICE. For those situations, Tailscale provides a network of so-called DERP (Designated Encrypted Relay for Packets) servers. These fill the same role as TURN servers in the ICE standard, except they use HTTPS streams and WireGuard keys instead of the obsolete TURN recommendations."
DERP seems like one interesting solution (there may be others!) to UDP blockages...

Now I just don’t use it

I did not intuitively understand what Tailscale does, so I visited the following related page:

Ah! OK, now I get it! :-)

Fantastic. So many posibilities
Is this like a more robust funnel?
