A $2.5/month vps solves this issue.
It does not. I push hundreds of TB across my private mesh.

Yeah, such extension is natural and it comes up frequently in the context of overlay networks. The defining question here is if you are OK with relaying other people's CP traffic.
"within the tailnet." So, the "other people" are people you've authorized to be on your tailnet, at least in this conversation.

#94> We believe our new Tailscale Peer Relays connectivity option—unique to Tailscale—gives customers the best performance and flexibility. Seems pretty similar to some of the stuff ZeroTier was doing years ago. Hard to claim it's unique to Tailscale. Charging for it above and beyond the per user costs seems overboard as well.

Yeah, Tailscale is really cool. The only thing I wish is that they didn't tie auth to either a big tech monopoly (Google, github etc) or running your own IDP service. I would love to use Tailscale for some self hosted stuff I have, but hesitate to start exposing something like an identity management tool because that's a high value target. And of course, I don't really want to let Google et al be in control of my VPN…
They support Passkeys. This is exactly how I continue using them after moving away from Google Workspaces.

tailscale appears to be a paid product with a free tier, nebula (while DIY) is free
there is an open source control plane called headscale which covers almost all of the features for free (while DIY)
Just don't rely on centralized for-profit entities, rely on stuff produced by non-profits and foundations, that you know isn't gonna screw you over as soon as they need money.

When networks get used for unethical or criminal workloads, reliability problems aren’t the tooling's fault. A tiny VPS does the job fine for the rest of us.
