>Just use wireguard. It really isn't that hard.

I love WG and use it extensively, but the attraction of Tailscale (and why I use it) is that it takes disparate concepts and gives you a nice visual control panel to manage them and see the status of all your devices in one place.

Nothing. Absolutely nothing exists for Wireguard that does even some of that, which doesn't also cost money.

I don't think Wireguard is even capable of the 'DERP' server concept to get around NAT limitations.

So no, you can't 'just use Wireguard' to accomplish what Tailscale does.
