Fair, but I guess we could agree that a lot of people on this community are not exactly matching your "most people" bin. Having alternatives is always a good idea. And taken that some people run HA on pretty exotic hardware, there is a chance that tailscale doesn't work with it (albeit I agree they do a pretty good job in supporting as much platforms and distros as possible). Talking about alternatives... There is netbird as well ;)

Not asking much... Just if they just would add a trackpoint, a decent mechanical keyboard (don't mind if this adds 0.5cm to the thickness) and offer a black chassis... I feel they would really be the new home of former IBM ThinkPad users which are more and more disappointed about Lenovos decisions to try to compete with Macs.
OK, you bet me, it took me 15 min to setup WireGuard on my opnsense-based router and install it on my phone and my laptop. Now I can access my entire network from everywhere, including full access to HA.
Not saying tailscale is bad but for me WireGuard was sufficient easy...
Just yesterday I thought about the vice versa way... Wouldn't it be nice if one could bisect the nix configuration. Well technical you can already dealing with git, but a 'nixos-rebuild bisect' would be a nice shortcut. Esp. for config problems which aren't identified immediately. One of those "whoa, since when did my exotic seldomly used hardware stop to work..."-moments.
