Replacing Tailscale with a 2-VPS WireGuard setup (No port forwarding)

Replacing Tailscale with WireGuard

I replaced Tailscale with a self-hosted WireGuard setup using two VPSes to securely expose home lab services without port forwarding or SaaS.

I wanted to move away from Tailscale but found Headscale a bit too convoluted for what I actually needed.

Ended up with a simple WireGuard setup using two VPSes: one as a VPN hub, the other acting as a reverse proxy back into my home lab.

It lets me expose services publicly without any inbound port forwarding on my home connection.
