There is a whole page just on this subject https://herdr.dev/compare/

There is a whole page about this https://herdr.dev/compare/

For me the killer feature is the git worktree management.

But in essence it is tmux on steroid (Specifically for agents)

You missed the most important one. Automatic git worktree management. So that different agents don't clash with each other.

Because of lot of AI PRs come from first time contributors who just discovered the tools. Maybe their PR is amazing, maybe it is trash. You never know until you review it.

What exactly does rac validate do? How is it deterministic? Is there an example somewhere?

The goal posts keep moving.

First iroh was marketed as "solves communication behind NAT". Then we went to application level NAT busting vs node level NAT busting. Then we went to distributed vs client-server, then we went to stable IPs for non-server devices (your original comment). Now we moved to "true peer to peer" and "public keys".

This just tells me that the marketing site doesn't explain what Iroh actually does.

The fact that so many other people (apart from me) asked about the connection to Tailscale is also interesting.

They don't need to be https://tailscale.com/docs/features/tailscale-funnel

For this simple scenario (just exposing your laptop to a public IP) there are already a gazillion alternatives (e.g. ngrok)

They do if you use tailscale and friends

but if I am shipping a video conferencing application (where I control both the client and the server) I don't need nat traversal anymore. My clients will have outgoing connections to whichever co-ordination server I choose.

Tailscale is great for bringing devices/apps into a secure network when I cannot modify them in any way. If I have full access to the source code for everything, the story changes completely.

but what exactly is the use case? I was responding to the nat traversal topic..

If I wanted to share something internal with a friend I would use ngrok or any of the million alternatives.

Anyway, this is exactly why my top-level comment says that this project needs a "versus" page in the docs.

Like https://tailscale.com/docs/features/tsnet ?

Congrats on shipping

You need urgently a "versus" page that talks about tailscale/netbird/netmaker/zerotier/twingate/openziti

Looking at the use cases, right now I don't see anything that cannot be done with Tailscale...

you can embed tailscale on the application level https://tailscale.com/docs/features/tsnet

Already possible with taiscale, netmaker, zerotier etc.

isn't this exactly what tailscale (and also zerotier, netmaker) do?

New comment by kkapelon in "Starlink Mini as a failover"

kkapelon — Mon, 16 Mar 2026 12:04:45 +0000

You can get a 4g dongle with $20 for basic failover. There are also many other companies that sell cheaper 5G routers. Zte has several models.

Starlink only makes sense as a last resort if LTE coverage is not available in your area.

You can find something similar with IOT sims. And then you just need a standard 4g/5g dongle/router
