> Instead, we hope that by being transparent about our security practices and helping ensure that Headscale remains compatible with Tailscale, you will either use Tailscale, or host Headscale for your own personal needs.

You love Headscale for personal use? What would you say to someone looking at Headscale for their business over Tailscale?

Rock on!

> Rock on!

That's a really odd response, to be honest. I was expecting something around features you only get with Tailscale, scaling issues with Headscale, something to sell me on paying $6 a user.

The value of paying Tailscale is

- You don't have to maintain the infra yourself. It is maintained by system experts, vs the necessity to learn such knowledge yourself

- You are going to get features earlier, as Tailscale is the leading implementation, and Headscale is trying to maintain compatibility

- You have a promise of a certain level of support depending on your plan, rather than relying on an open source community with no responsibility to provide support

It feels like Tailscale isn't trying to gatekeep the technology, they are trying to sell all the things that simplify/provide value for people who would like to use the technology.
