What does this give you that Wireguard wouldn’t? (Honest question, I have no idea.)

Good question. I could achieve the same with Tailscale or Innernet, both using Wireguard. So perhaps my answer has to be that Yggdrasil tickles my interest in mesh networking.

Oh. Also. If I lose my VPS my network is still functioning to a degree. If you lose your wireguard server I believe you’re out of luck?
