Today I fumbled thru the install of Rayfish and Yggdrasil. Both are awesome, but Rayfish was so much easier to install and use.

Have you tried these yet?

Here’s the Yggdrasil link:

https://yggdrasil-network.github.io/

Yggdrasil has Android, Windows, Linux, Apple installers.

Rayfish only works on desktop right now, but hopefully soon they will be able to get it on Android.

    Never heard of it. Why should I use it instead of established systems?

      Because, specially rayfish, both are encrypted peer to peer and have their own DNS and are decentralized. So no company in the middle collecting everything you do in a data center and giving it to your enemies while charging you for it.

      With Rayfish you don’t even need a dynamic DNS or FQN so my FQN cost and it’s never ending complications go away. The only problem is that they don’t have an android app yet for Rayfish. For now I’m using Yggdrasil.

        So no advantage over something known like Netbird and Wireguard, then

          Both Rayfish and Yggdrasil are serverless and can traverse a NAT. So you can’t block them unless you unplug.
