    If you’re support ANYONE other than yourself who isn’t technical, it’s a hurdle. And likely a significant one.

    I would not be able to educate my wife properly on the times when she would need to enable wireguard on her phone to use it properly (and when to disable it for other scenarios).

    This has nothing to do with running a pirate service.

      My wife has no problem starting the tailscale app and then starting the jelkyfin app. Its really that simple.

      She also uses the tailscale exit node I run whenever she is on a public wifi. Its really a well designed simple to use app.

        Would you like to explain to my MIL about how to set up tailscale for her entire network so she can stream to her TV?

              Does she drive or open bank accounts?
              If the answer is yes, why is that so much harder?

              And I work in tech support. With medical non-technical folks. Guiding them through the control panel oblindly on the phone.
              I know what I am dealing with on the regular!
