Tailscale has some functionality to automatically determine what flavor of NAT traversal is necessary, this isn’t a big deal but do I have to configure the nodes to use these methods or will your client figure this out itself?

Right now you need to choose your own option. We're planning to automate this in the next couple of months. I will say, this isn't always a bad thing. We have a lot of users who switched from Tailscale because it was frequently falling back to relay, often via public relays that were hundreds of miles away from them, causing big increases in latency. We want to give people the automation, but also the choice.

Good idea! I’ll have to give this a spin, I like the idea of “nebula but wireguard”.
