I really appreciate the way you explain things. You do such a great job of explaining these things in a way that gives detail in a way that makes sense to people with a range of technical detail. I have a pretty strong technical background but it still bothers me when companies do the whole “step 1, draw some circles. Step 2, draw the rest of the owl” kind of tutorials. There aren’t enough people on the internet with positive feedback so I wanted to make sure to take a moment for it on this. Please keep these coming and keep up the good work, I for one really appreciate it.

This is perfect! I was just about to do this with immich, tailscale, and a reverse proxy, but I had no idea how to set it up. It's like this video was explicitly made for me!
@menonrb
This concept just suddenly became clear. Thank you for the instructions on how to do this. Was unhappy exposing certain services to the entire internet, but this video has clarified how this can be avoided. Nicely done.
@valterschmaltz
I use to have cloudflare as my DNS server. Now I host my own technitium DNS server, and I configured tailscale to enforce that as the DNS server. In technitium I am using the split dns app, which allows me resolving to both tailscale and my lan IPs, depending where the client is connecting from. Works great.
@4pmvim
Hey! Idk what’s more awesome at this point, your content or your product. Mad kudos! Thank you so much!!
@julianhamann4925
Setting a CNAME record in Cloudflare to an FQDN on the tailnet felt like a switch in my brain just clicked and everything made sense.
@ghangj
Another BANGER from Alex. It is always a great time to learn more about Tailscale.
@diszydreams
Thanks Alex, thanks Tailscale! I got into Tailscale from listening to the "Self-Hosted"-Podcast (which I still listen to and enjoy very much!) and have been using it for ~1 year, but using it more like a traditional VPN (host to host, between my home-automation server, my pi-hole rasp. etc.). So as my autumn learning project I have decided to a) do from docker to podman and b) spin up pods, or rather services/apps that are in containers&pods - so that they become accessible on my tailnet, independently of the underlying host. SO just wanted to say that this video was just what I needed ! Have a good one!
@alexclifford2485
Brilliant. I've used tailscale for a family jellyfin server for our movies and shows, image syncing with photosync so it syncs my photos and videos from my phone to my hard drive from anywhere. Then I have a mini pc with a big 12TB hard drive connected with tailscale for personal cloud storage, accessible from any device. I use CX file explorer from my android phone and tablet to access my files on it. It has an upfront outlay but much much cheaper than any cloud storage (and larger). Plus I've got some other apps I'm experimenting with. Really brilliant piece of software. I've never come across something so practical and intuitive for networking devices.
@reddeer223
You are one of the best video tutorials makers i have ever seen. Well explained and good amount of detail.
@bikerchrisukk
Video's like this were very much needed, nice one 👍 Really pleased to see Immich getting more attention - I haven't had a successful install using TrueNAS Scale, but I'm definitely keen to try it again very soon. Just about domains, but here in the UK I found OVH, super cheap. I've only used it for a casual use, but the ovh domain itself is very cheap. ...and after years of listening to Alex's podcasts, funny to actually see what he looks like!
@IonyDFT
Can't tell you how much I love tailscale!
@seth2389
There are good vides and there are great ones! And then, there is this! Great work Alex, keep raising that👙bar!
@amosgiture
I always learn something new with Sir Alex. Thanks!
@thijmenvanbarneveld6823
When I try to copy your setup my domains always give ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED, also when I execute the dig command it does point to the right tailscale domain. Anyone else having this issue?
@rey6253
Great video, this is what i do as well but i use nginx proxy manager as a reverse proxy. Overall works great exposing my docker containers but there is something I would like to do, is there any way to grant permission to a user only for one port? So i dont have tp grant them access to every system i have on my side. This would be better for security as well in case their device is somehow compromised
@gargamelgamingotherstuff6727
Why not use the Funnel part of tailscale? Or did it not exist when this video was made?
@TheMichlFischl
Is it possible to combine this approach with the ts-docker approach. Hence, composing a docker container with the tailscale image, running a service via the network of that container, pointing the dns records of a custom domain to the tailscale domain of either the host container and making caddy resolve the https? I tried to dabble a bit with this but it didn't lead to results
