Perv

Nice stuff, except most ISPs won't let you open external ports. In this case one can spool a VPS with WG as a server, instead of the raspi, and all other devices connecting as clients. Can be rented for $1.70/month at lnvps.net, no kyc and paid with lightning. But maybe they can't be trusted. Then use Tailscale or a VPS provider you trust.

Nicely done! One suggestion though: it would make much more sense to use Mikrotik hardware instead of the RPi. While I love everything RPi related, this might not be the perfect job for it (especially for the Zero). Nowadays even the most affordable Mikrotik routers support Wireguard out of the box. hAP for example is more or less equally priced as RPi Zero, while being more powerfull and you don't have to worry about SD card corruption (which happens regularly when using swap all the time) or other stability issues. It's also easier to setup as you have a GUI and a ton of tutorials on this subject already. Having said that, keep up the good work, I'm looking forward to part 2 of the series!

Starting it today! nostr:nevent1qvzqqqqqqypzqwmleq3kz8c6at4x8m3m76djtw92zmkxaqw34lpeqf5q3lsegd20qyt8wumn8ghj76rfwd6zumn0wd68ytnvv9hxgtcpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsqgzv8lcx8d07f6vk4tg53jx7g4r3kxv2gej609dyxps9y9qeussjd5crh5sv
