Hello everyone, hope you are doing great.

I am not sure if my question goes here, but this was my best guess. Apologies if I am wrong.

So, I have been using the mesh network offered by NordVPN alongside with their VPN subscription to sync some folders between my phone (Android) and my laptop (Linux Mint). This was great because I remember not being able to use Tailscale and VPN at the same time in the past, at least not on my phone.

Now they are dropping Meshnet support in December, so I am trying to figure out if there’s any way I can still run NordVPN and a Meshnet, or if I have to discard one.

If you know of any alternative, please let me know!

    If you can selfhost and can use containers/docker, I wanna shamelessly plugin my solution: https://github.com/stratself/tswg. Basically mount a WireGuard config from Nord or any upstream VPN, and the container will tunnel traffic to said VPN when you choose it as an exit node.

    There are other gluetun + tailscale solutions that are worth a look too

      Honestly I have tried selfhosting and I really like it, but I am always too scared of doing something wrong and losing data. So I end up pulling the plug haha
