Comment on Headscale vs Netbird vs Pangolin - How do you like selfhosting them?

Guess lemmy just pulls in all those notes, but still curious on how people like running these services. Headscale is a really nice project, but so are Netbird and Pangolin. I’ve been enjoying Netbird, but heard some people run into battery drain issues on clients. Was curious what other sorts of things crop up for people running these services themselves, or if it is smooth sailing.

I’ve been using NetBird for quite a while now. It has grown from an experiment in connecting to the server without exposing it to quite a stable setup that I make use of every day, and even got my partner and some of my family to use. That is the hosted offering, however, not me self hosting my own server component.
For a couple of months now, I’ve been eyeing pangolin though. It just seems like such an upgrade concerning identity and SSO - but equally a complete overhaul of my infrastructure and a steep learning curve.
I am itching to get it running but would probably have to approach it step-by-step, and roll it out pretty slowly, while transferring the existing services.

Do you find they cover different use cases? Would it make sense to just selfhost Netbird, or to use a selfhosted Netbird in place of Pangolin?
