>It seamlessly detects when the peer is local so it doesn't route out to the internet and back
One of my use cases for Tailscale was connectivity between my primary NAS and an off-site NAS I use for backups. Being able to bring my NAS to the same site/network I had set-up the off-site NAS and just have things work over the LAN without reconfiguring anything was a wonderful surprise.
(Yes, I’m aware I could save some overhead by reconfiguring but looking at the network traffic monitor I was happy enough with the throughput I got though Tailscale’s LAN routing)
