I doubt this is a thing, but is there a VPN tunnel like headscale//tailscale that allows a person to approve a client connection from the app or elsewhere for another device without it? I’m asking because I want to use devices like tvs with jellyfin but behind tailscale as well. Is this a thing? I don’t know exactly how the app works, so don’t crucify me lol.

I’ll let you know when I look into it more, but it seems like firezone is pretty close to what I wanted

ZeroTier does this, and it’s self hosted. Yay

If I am understanding your question correctly, tailscale has that built in. Look into “tailnet lock”.

I use zerotier myself, works the same as tailscale but any device that’s added has to be given permission trough their web ui
