    Thank you, Yggdrasil, for being just a compact routing scheme, not a semi-governmental military solution for implementing horrors beyond my comprehesion (they just love nordic or lotr names for that kind of things)

    Is Yggdrasil still using raw truncated ed25519 keys to determine the treespace root node? [1] If so, this seems to be an obvious network availability vulnerability. [2][1]: https://yggdrasil-network.github.io/2021/06/19/preparing-for...[2]: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27577201#27580938

    Does anyone run private services for themselves on Yggdrasil by allowlisting specific IPs and piggybacking on the routing layer? I've thought about doing this but haven't tried it.I wish TLS behaved better with private networks but I around certificates continues to mostly be oriented around the Internet.

    It's been working well for me as a kind of poor-man's tailscale, connecting several VPS and several laptops.

    Was evaluating this recently, the lack of NAT busting was a dealbreaker.

    That is a remarkably content-free website. I tried (I think) all of the obvious pages, but still don't know in any detail, how do they handle routing differently from the normal internet.Can anyone explain? They complain that routing on the internet is (somewhat) hierarchical to scale, but then don't explain their solution to the same problem(s).The simplified choice has always been distance-vector, or link state. Are they a better attempt at one of these? Some new idea?

    Not to be confused with the Yggdrasil Linux distro.(Sometimes being first doesn't help.)[1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yggdrasil_Linux/GNU/X
