Figured I'd give Netbird a go, glad I did because I can self host extremely easily by using the new services feature.
You specify a subdomain, point to a peer, specify a protocol and port, and you are good. NetBird fetches you the certificate and your site goes live fast.
I can use my Immich with my mobile data now.
Edit: Note that I choose to self host NetBird, and haven't really used the service they provide all that much.

Aye, same. I'm Swedish. Not thrilled about the U.S. threatening to invade Greenland, or kidnapping heads of state. Denmark has been sucking up to the U.S. a lot through the years which goes to show that you can't trust the U.S., ever.
He does like to spread fear and doubt. That's one of his specialties. Yeah, countries enshitify too. LOL I can understand the sentiment you just expressed rather than the standard 'Tailscale metadata'. But if you want to take care of stinky orange man, you and your country will have to stand up to him. I'm doing the best I can from this end. LOL
Absolutely necessary to do more than voting with your wallet. Fascism is on the rise everywhere and we as societies need to actively engage with it and provide working alternative structures to prevent people to be drawn towards it.
