ZeroTier does not use an OSI approved open-source license. It is under a freedom-restricting "Business Source License". Nebula is MIT licensed.
Nebula is much simpler and in most cases faster than ZeroTier.
tailscale clone?
The other way around. Tailscale cloned zerotier, but they diverged quite a bit. You can find VPN connected hardware with zerotier if you've got such needs, and that's simply not possible with tailscale.
Hugged to death but what i like about zerotier is that I can access my Home Assistant instance (and other home services) with same ip address (resolved from dns and then TLS terminated with traefik) from home network and from zerotier. And it does not matter if I have ZT network connected when home. Not sure if that is possible with tailscale (from my understanding, it generates always tailnet ip for hosts).
> from my understanding, it generates always tailnet ip for hosts It does, but it should connect over LAN when both devices are on the same network. The tailnet IP doesn’t exist outside the WireGuard network, so it’s up to the WireGuard routing algorithm.

Also consider Nebula: https://github.com/slackhq/nebula ZeroTier does not use an OSI approved open-source license. It is under a freedom-restricting "Business Source License". Nebula is MIT licensed. Nebula is much simpler and in most cases faster than ZeroTier.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
Not all ISP provide a public IP address. Some ISP force you to change your IP every 24h. So you'd have to reconnect your VPN.
DDclient (or an alternative) takes care of the IP change and wireguard is as good as stateless anyway.

Wireguard connects to an IP endpoint. It does not resolve the domain for each packet.
