Tailscale is a VPN in the classic sense, I e. to build a secure network over an insecure one. Mullvad is a service to hide your public IP address and switch from having to trust your ISP to having to trust Mullvad.

I too have a subscription to one of the latter services, but I always find them sketchy

Yes I know, that’s why I use both for different purposes

I mean whether TailScale is more similar to Mullvad in business model and customer centrism, or whether the early signs of enshittification are already there (I haven’t seen any red flags to date)

  Ok, I don’t really know why I wrote all that because it was pretty clear from context you know the difference. Hopefully it helps others.
  
  For me, Mullvad isn’t an option because they don’t have port forwarding anymore.

    Oh yeah, sorry not trying to be snarky - you are completely right so it is useful information.

  When Tailscale turns to shit then we have Netbird as an alternative
