Wait that means I have to expose a port. But I have zero exposed ports.
This post was created by the pangolin-gang.
I'll expose my port to you.
Privileged port?
I downvoted because I laughed 🤣
Meaning router port, not firewall port? I struggle to know the difference.
Some people seem to think that by not opening a port in their router, and instead opening a reverse tunnel to a VPS which has an open port, it somehow makes them more secure
I'm not sure what a reverse tunnel or vps is so I'm good. Why wouldnt they just use tail scale.?
behold!
the average selfhost admin!
