Heading to San Francisco this weekend for The Agent Arena Hackathon.
@Vultr is hosting, @netbird is one of the track partners, and I'm doing a quick demo for the contestants on how to use NetBird in whatever they're building.
Sep 26 to 27. Register, come say hi, and show me what you're working on!

Your first home server doesn’t need to be complicated.
Pick the hardware. Pick the OS. Install a few apps. Start hosting your own stuff.
NetBird just published a solid beginner guide — and ZimaBoard 2 + ZimaOS are in it. 👀
Maybe this is your sign to finally build one.

Awesome article from XDA
NetBird replaced Tailscale when I hit the 6-user limit, and it costs me $3 a month instead of $25

Why would anyone use Nebula when you can setup NetBird in 5 minutes? 😉
More features, AGPL, and all your data is your own.
Why would anyone use Tailscale when you can setup Nebula in 10 minutes?
Same features, MIT license, and your trust chain isn’t given to another company.

My coding agent set it up for me and then did an infra audit independently. Works like a charm!
