ZeroTier is cool. With it on, I can just grab a file / test something on my laptop without needing to expose it publicly and either setup dyndns or grab my laptop's assigned IP address. I can just keep one bookmark for each service.

As a bonus, it'll route directly, instead of through an Open on server, etc.

I just wish they had an alternative to curl | bash. Something like Docker's install instructions, where you don't have to look through the install script to figure out what's going on inside sudo.

Both Debian and Void Linux have proper packages; did not try other distros.

Android has an app, though I don't know whether the GUI part is open source.

So far, works great for me.

The curl | bash just figures out your distro, adds the appropriate setup to your package manager, and installs a package. You can do it all by hand if you want.
