Help me out please Fediverse,

I’m interested in running my own headscale server for the fun of it. I’d probably have 3 users (me, OH, kid), and about a dozen devices (laptops, phones, servers).

What I don’t understand is how authentication works there. The docs mention Open ID. Do I have to set up an Open ID server and provision accounts for everyone? Can people ‘just use passkeys’? I don’t fully understand that part.

Yes, that's how I had it set up.

I switched to netbird, seems to me like the better selfhosted solution IMHO. And while I run it against authelia, you don't need OIDC anymore to run netbird, it's just an option.
