I really wanted to keep it after deciding to switch from Tailscale, but it’s mobile app is draining my phone’s battery. It also disconnects without automatically reconnect. Now, I’m in the process of setting OpenZiti up.

How’s your experience with NetBird’s mobile app?

just curious, why move away from tailscale?

Because the main reason I’m self-hosting is to have control over my data. This includes a lot of metadata about my infra/services/devices which Tailscale is uploading all the time to their servers. Besides that, they’re on the Enshitification road, which made me to search for 100% self-hosted alternatives. And yes, I’m going for EU based companies when it’s a viable option.

You gave away your metadata getting on the internet today. I like controlling my data as well, however I realize that certain compromises just have to be made in order to continue to live in a global, civilized, society.
