Well, to be fair, it was already pretty straight-forward to run WireGuard in production (if your distribution of choice has a WireGuard DKMS package). What I'm more excited about is more people building products on top of WireGuard, thus making it more accessible for the non-sysadmins out there.

This is what we (https://tailscale.com) are working on! WireGuard is incredible, but adding some key management (that integrates with your IAM system) and NAT traversal really helps to round things out. I'd love to hear suggestions and feedback on what we're building.

They make a good point about two-factor auth.

I am interested in using tailscale as an individual user.

I'm essentially worthless as a user: I'm a college student and would be unwilling to pay much; I might possibly convert to a serious customer but that would be years and years down the line when everything is different.

I'd also be massively underutilizing it to connect a handful of devices and max two or three users.

I put my email address in your system, and am crossing my fingers.

My experience with dealing with the DKMS implementation of the Nvidia drivers left a sour taste in my mouth. Not fun when something goes sideways with an update and thousand nodes need to be recovered
