I used to use Hamachi on Windows to play “local LAN” games with my friends, has anyone tried using Tailscale for this purpose? As far as I know it should work fine, but I’m not sure and I don’t have any friends to try it out with, but it makes me curious.
I’ve used Tailscale for this numerous times, and ZerpTier. Please get rid of Hamachi, it’s truly terrible software.
Didn’t hamachi die 20 years ago when it was purchased by logmein and nerfed the free version to something unusable?
To be honest I don’t know and I didn’t care at the time I used it either because I knew nothing about software or computer security and just listened to what some random youtuber said, but you’re probably right.
Yes absolutely. Back in the day I used Hamachi for Minecraft servers, now I run a server with offline mode enabled through Tailscale with zero fear of anyone but my friends accessing it.
Not tailscale, but I have used zerotier as an alternative and it worked well
Didn’t even know that Zerotier exists, I have to check it out, thanks!
