Maybe I’m misunderstanding something…

But are you accusing someone of promoting vendor lock-in (cloudflare) while at the same time promoting vendor lock-in (tailscale)?

If you’re ok with vendor lock-in, shouldn’t you in theory be ok with any vendor?

Headscale is the not-vendor-login version of Tailscale.

Sort of. Many tailscale clients you would use with headscale are closed source.

No. Not all vendors are equal. We can treat ProtonMail differently then Gmail, for example. Looking at what's gone down with VMware, definitely don't get in bed with Broadcom.
