Really, wow ok. Someone recommended that in another post, and I thought there must still be some value to doing it myself.
So does all the traffic go through tailscale? I gotta watch a YouTube video...
The traffic goes through a wireguard connection. Tailscale is just a facilitator to initiate the connections. There's more to it than that, but that's the basic gist of it.
The core technology is wireguard, and you could set everything up yourself, but plain wireguard can be a chore and pain to get all setup. Tailscale is honestly 5 minutes to get a basic connection going.
