                                        so I decided to try out . gotta admit, I was actually pretty damn impressed. i've never used tailscale before, untill now. yeah, it's pretty cool how it works. I have someone who shall stay unnamed in the public eye that is hosting some services, like my ALi EAS discord bot, for me. we used a in order to send RDP traffic. the only problem was that during the bad conditions of my network, it didn't handle too well, and when it failed, it could not reestablish a connection. so I decided to use tailscale. I setup 2 different accounts. one being the administrator account, the account that is allowed to have everything, the other being the dumby account. the dumby account is a member, and is what I used to setup tailscale on the server. I wanted to make it so if this tailscale account did get compromised, it would at least contain the damage so much so they couldn't try to change stuff without me knowing. after about 5/10minutes of fitting, I finally got connected. and it's definitely better than the CF tunnel was. so all and all, it's definitely a good system, and i'll let you know what happens when I use it a bit more.
