Creating a direct connection between any two computers (not just from client to server) over the internet is notoriously difficult. Many home networks are behind NATs which prevent new inbound connections. Sometimes these NATs are from the ISP (carrier-grade NATs) which are impossible to work around with port forwarding and/or UPnP. While hole punching techniques can break through NATs, it's far from guaranteed. Thus, we need something that works in the general case: relays.

Tailscale’d Into Homelabbing
Having my own homelab was something I wanted to try for a long time. However, I just couldn’t get started. Mostly because I kept overthinking it. How will I handle dynamic IPs? Do I need something like a local DNS on my router for that? Even if I solve things inside the home, how am I supposed to access it remotely? Do I need port forwarding at the NAT layer? And what about TLS certificates, how do I even manage those without using a public certificate authority?

A Model for addressing privacy on ATproto
When I first got involved with Northsky social, we knew we would have to eventually address the elephant in the room. How do we proactively protect a community from outside influences without relying purely on moderation? And more importantly, how do we keep bad actors from simply pulling their data straight from a relay?
