We've definitely started talking about it.

We've had a lot of enterprises show up that are very interested in Aperture, and they've been bringing these things up with us as well.

I think there's a world of possibilities for us there.

I'm a big fan of open source in general.

And I'm a big fan of self-hosting things.

I like to play around with it.

I like to tinker it.

I like to feel like I'm in control.

I like to be able to just turn it off if I want to.

Yeah, exactly.

And I think with me, the bigger thing that just keeps me going as a founder is I want everybody in the world to be using Tailscale because it's just a better way to do networking.

And so anything that's going to encourage that, I want to pursue it.

And I think, obviously, having a self-hosted version of Aperture is one way that it'll enable that.

Getting more people just to build TSNet applications is another way to do it.

So everything's on the table right now.

For the purposes of, I guess, just speed and getting feedback and figuring out where we need to go next,

This model that we have right now I think is the best one because frankly we're making updates and rolling out features so quickly that trying to manage those with self-hosted installations and worrying about database upgrades and all the security and everything behind them, we sort of did a bit of the math where we need to choose one path and keep it super simple and just manage things aggressively.

That's where I'd like to go with it, for sure.

Yeah, it is designed to be portable like that.

I mean, I'm excited about all the stuff you're mentioning.
