That’s great until you try and get it working on your <insert person here that doesn’t live with you>’s TV via their streaming device.
Comment on Plex has paywalled my server!

My mom’s tv surprisingly has WireGuard so I set that up for her.

The same tailscale that announced last week that they are going to start charging?

Took a quick look at the free tier,
3 users 100 devices Basically all tailscale features
That seems pretty reasonable to me. Main account and two accounts to share. With just friends and family, I doubt most people will reach the 100 device limit.

Well, that sucks for me. I was planning on using my domain name.

From what I gather, this refers to the email address you sign up with.
If you use something like a non-gmail email address when signing up, it starts you off on the business plan with a trial (which you can instantly change to free). (Note: they’re gonna change this auto-detection thing with shared domains soon due to a security hole.)
I believe you can still use a custom domain (instead of the randomised *.ts.net provided one) with DNS lookups in your tailnet, on the personal (free) plan.

I have it set up so that my custom domain is pointing to the local ip of my server.

I’m willing to recommend Tailscale because I run headscale and it does basically everything a selfhoster needs. When the free version is passable, it’s harder to enshitify the commercial version.

Says personal is still free? Not seeing what you’re saying

What announcement? There’s been a new Personal Plus plan around for several months already - introduced without much fanfare, and simply brings the user count from 3 to 6 for a fixed small fee. Presumably this is due to feedback from personal users wanting to contribute something other than nothing.
Where do you see the free Personal plan has changed at all?

It’s kinda the same as it was before, as far as I can see, for the personal plan. Looks like they’ve just added more the ability to add more than 3 users for a fee.
