Figured I’d give Netbird a go, glad I did because I can self host extremely easily by using the new services feature.

You specify a subdomain, point to a peer, specify a protocol and port, and you are good. NetBird fetches you the certificate and your site goes live fast.

I can use my Immich with my mobile data now.

Edit: Note that I choose to self host NetBird, and haven’t really used the service they provide all that much.

Friendship ended with Cloudflare, now NetBird is my best friend.

I really wanted to keep it after deciding to switch from Tailscale, but it’s mobile app is draining my phone’s battery. It also disconnects without automatically reconnect. Now, I’m in the process of setting OpenZiti up.

How’s your experience with NetBird’s mobile app?

There is an alternative unofficial app available on F-Droid called JetBird.
It is as valid as the official one.

To reduce battery usage, you may want to try Netbird’s Lazy Connections feature.
