Today I fumbled thru the install of Rayfish and Yggdrasil. Both are awesome, but Rayfish was so much easier to install and use.
Have you tried these yet?
Here’s the Yggdrasil link:
https://yggdrasil-network.github.io/
Yggdrasil has Android, Windows, Linux, Apple installers.
Rayfish only works on desktop right now, but hopefully soon they will be able to get it on Android.
Acronyms, initialisms, abbreviations, contractions, and other phrases which expand to something larger, that I’ve seen in this thread:
Fewer Letters More Letters CGNAT Carrier-Grade NAT DNS Domain Name Service/System ISP Internet Service Provider NAT Network Address Translation VPN Virtual Private Network VPS Virtual Private Server (opposed to shared hosting)
6 acronyms in this thread; the most compressed thread commented on today has 13 acronyms.

But rayfish is vibe coded. I’d not trust it.
I suppose they don’t work without having
- a coordination server of sorts
- having all the nodes on static IP
Like, if the IPs keep changing, and a device goes offline and then online, how does yggdrasil know how to reach that system?
https://github.com/yggdrasil-network/public-peers/blob/master public peers were probably chosen because they are always online, and probably high performance vps which you can set in your config file.
but maybe this https://yggdrasil-network.github.io/2018/07/28/addressing.html is a better answer to your question
