Use Tailscale to Remote control Mac mini
This month, I have moved to a new place. This place provides a co-working space.
As a Mac mini user, I have to take the mac every where and super inconvenient.
Then as a Chinese programmer, manipulating VPNs is a simple work. Tailscale is a P2P VPN service that builds on WireGuard protocol.
Setting up Tailscale is super easy, on linux, just run sudo tailscale up, on Mac, a desktop software can be installed.
After setting up, I can control my Mac using No Machine. Because it is P2P, the data runs in the building’s router. The speed is acceptable.
