I was setting up a Raspberry Pi (3B+) at the office and wanted to connect to it from home.

Researching various approaches lead me to a hn thread recommending Tailscale, signed up, worked for me & now I’m a happy user and planning to get 2 additional new Pis tomorrow (still deciding between the 2G and the 4G model).

edit: I regularly recommend things I find useful to others (especially those that took me some effort to discover) independent of whether they are bits of insight (try x instead of y), open source software or for profit software.

Just thought others might find this useful as well, that’s all.

Accusing someone of shilling is contrary to HN comment guidelines.
