Hi,

I just recently setup tailscale for accessing all my self-hosted fun stuff while I am away from home as securely and conveniently as possible. It dawned on me today that it’s entirely possible that tailscale can have an outage one day, and at that time I would need a backup. So I searched around and the best open source alternative with the same concept I could find was zerotier. So, I have a few questions for you.

#1. Can I use zerotier alongside Tailscale for backup connections in the scenario I described? If so, should I?

#2. What is your backup method you currently have set up?

    Honestly, I don’t mind if my home server is down for a day or so. If it stops working, I get an alert (obviously not self hosted, but from uptimerobot) and I can look at it in the evening when I’m at home.
