I just this past weekend was looking into setting up a personal networking solution- and looked hard at TailScale and their competitors. I do not like- that Tailscale has chosen to only allow SSO sign-in - as that forces one to have a Microsoft,Github[MS], Google, or Apple account- and I presume that leaves one at the mercy of those companies for the free option.

I will probably eventually cave and use my main account from one of those companies since creating true secondary accounts can be difficult(they end up tied back to your main account on the backend usually, So if something happens to one or the company does something- it'll affect everything and building separation is not easy.) - But I dislike that sort of design.

This is not true. You can run Tailscale with a custom self hosted OIDC provider such as Authelia.

Interesting. I didn't know that you could also use e.g codeberg this way.
