This is actualy interesting, thanks for sharing, but not really relevant as Easytier seems to be a tailscale alternative. Not a iroh alternative.
Again, the difference is: tailscale/easytier/wireguard creates a VPN network on your computer/phone/whatever. So all apps can benefit of it
iroh is a library . This is for developers who want to integrate this P2P routing logic inside their app. It is closer to bittorrent than it is to tailscale.
Both approaches are great but fulfill completely different needs.
Iroh is free-to-use, permissively licensed, relays are self-hostable, and it's all fully open source for all necessary components. The only proprietary thing n0 visibly has is a managed platform for private relays with SLAs and observability. Which is IMO a bog-standard business model, it's not open-core nonsense. T There's no billable metering of users, bytes, QUIC endpoints, etc.
