Headscale is just a open source implementation of the Tailscale coordination server.

The coordination server just provides the IPs by which you use wireguard to connect. It can see that metadata (what machines are in a tailnet), but not anything else.



I am well aware of what headscale is. Why would I even mention it if I didn't know about it? How about stop commenting just for the sake of it?

Coordination server does a lot apart from distributing IPs to the clients. Read the goddamn docs before spreading misinformation

I was responding to the context here.

But in general, lmao. Chill out bro.

edit: Looking through your comments, I see that this is common.
