What's the easiest way to get https while still using my given tailnet as domain for accessing stuff? The tailscale documentation suggest to download certs to the server and point each service to those certs, but that seems like more work than it should..?

Is a reverse proxy the best option? Or what do people who use tailscale as vpn for their devices use?

I need to point certain services out and accessible to family members, will do this through funnel feature in tailscale, but want https set up before pointing anything out.

Appriciate any suggestions ✨

You can get domains for a few dollars per year. Go to tld-list.com and sort by renewal price.

When I was in school, I used to pay for domains by doing online surveys that paid $1 per survey. Not sure if that's still a thing these days.
