I&amp;#x27;m a minor user really but I have two sites that I use tailscale to access:  a couple of on-prem servers and my AWS production setup.&lt;p&gt;I can literally work from anywhere - had an issue over the weekend where I was trying to deploy an ECS container but the local wifi was so slow that the deploy kept timing out.&lt;p&gt;I simply SSH&amp;#x27;d over to my on-prem development machine, did a git pull of the latest code and did the deploy from there.  All while remaining secure with no open ports at all on my on-prem system and none in AWS. Can even do testing against the production Aurora database without any open ports on it, simply run a tailscale agent in AWS on a nano sized EC2.&lt;p&gt;Got another developer you need to give access to your network to?  Tailscale makes that trivial (as it does revoking them).&lt;p&gt;Yeah, for that deployment I could just make a GitHub action or something and avoid the perils of terrible internet, but for this I like to do it manually and Tailscale lets me do just that.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>About the Tailscale.com outage on March 7, 2024</title><url>https://tailscale.com/blog/tls-outage-20240307</url></story>

They&amp;#x27;re almost there for maintaining that typical isolation, which helps bc this kind of thing is common.&lt;p&gt;We track uptime of our various providers, and seeing bits like the GitHub or Zendesk sites go down is more common than we expected... and they&amp;#x27;re the good cases.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>About the Tailscale.com outage on March 7, 2024</title><url>https://tailscale.com/blog/tls-outage-20240307</url></story>
