Tailscale is free for pretty much everything you'd want to do as a home user.

It also doesn't constantly try and ram any paid offerings down your throat.

I was originally put off by how much Tailscale is evangelised here, but after trying it, I can see why it's so popular.

I have my Ubuntu server acting as a Tailscale exit node.

I can route any of my devices through it when I'm away from home (e.g. phone, tablet, laptop).

It works like a VPN in that regard.

Last year, I was on a plane and happened to sit next to an employee of Tailscale.

I told him that I thought his product was cool (and had used it throughout the flight to route my in-flight Wi-fi traffic back to the UK) but that I had no need to pay for it!
