Lee Briggs @brig.gs · 14/07/2026Are you using a coding agent? Ever wanted to check in on it when you're on the move? On a personal level, I use a devbox with opencode and then connect to the web interface over Tailscale! 120
Lee Briggs @brig.gs · 14/07/2026Thank you for explaining! Do you mind DM'ing me the name of the tailnet or your email and I'll see if I can see anything happening that we don't expect? 100
Lee Briggs @brig.gs · 14/07/2026Hey Amy. I lead the customer facing teams at Tailscale, I'm really sorry you had such a poor experience 😔 The default ACL for a tailnet when it is created is an allow all policy (tailscale.com/docs/referen...) so this feels like a bug What change did you need to make here to get this working?tailscale.comACL policy examples · Tailscale DocsView example ACL policies for common scenarios. 250
Lee Briggs @brig.gs · 12/06/2026I hear you, it's unfortunately the first I'm hearing of this so would love to chase down what happened here. You wouldn't actually need to reduce usage, just transition to storing state across client restarts which is relatively simple if your use-case can support it 000
Lee Briggs @brig.gs · 11/06/2026Anyone who's NOT English care to venture a guess why I'm so upset at this graphic from @winespectator.bsky.social ? 000
Lee Briggs @brig.gs · 11/06/2026Interestingly, this price change was actually driven by engineering, not sales. See above on the netmap caching stuff 000
Lee Briggs @brig.gs · 11/06/2026This is not the experience we want people to have, if you're open to sharing more details I'd be happy to chase this down internally 100
Lee Briggs @brig.gs · 11/06/2026This might seem really strange, but it does have a good reason for it - ephemeral nodes are incredibly intensive on our backend due to constant netmap calculations. There are solutions for this that aren't as expensive, and i'd be happy to walk you through them 000
Lee Briggs @brig.gs · 11/06/2026hey! I lead the customer engineering team at Tailscale. I just read the thread, and I'm really sorry you're having such a poor experience with the team. I'll reply to some of the specifics from the thread, but wanted to let you know we're here to try figure out a solution 000

Lee Briggs @brig.gs · 28/03/2026are you talking about funnel? Tailscale's basic tunnels are not really supposed to be short lived and only funnel is designed to share something to the wider internet. Would love to clear up any misconceptions here 100
