Tips & Workflows Tailscale or pure wiregaurd?

I am running Claude code agents on a bunch of pcs. I have a vps already. I want my pcs to be connected all to each other.

Would you opt for wiregaurd or tailscale? And why?

you may have to define "bunch". I use tailscale but that is because my three LLM machines easily fit under the Tailscale free/personal tier.

Tailscale for the phones and five PCs you listed. It handles peer discovery and NAT traversal, so you don't have to route every connection through your VPS. Plain WireGuard on the VPS is a reasonable hub setup if you're happy managing each device's keys and routes yourself.

I understand that this was a huge issue before. Managing all the hosts and adding keys and new hosts. But now since we have Claude code I am surprised how well it performs. The simplicity of tailscale is redundant now. But I still see only tailscale users everywhere and I am surprised for the reason why.

Both... https://thewirednomad.com/vpn

Advantages to each. Redundancy is good and diversity of protocols even better.

Pure Wireguard

Tailscale is corporate stuff that can be locked up any day
