Hello everyone, hope you are doing great.

I am not sure if my question goes here, but this was my best guess. Apologies if I am wrong.

So, I have been using the mesh network offered by NordVPN alongside with their VPN subscription to sync some folders between my phone (Android) and my laptop (Linux Mint). This was great because I remember not being able to use Tailscale and VPN at the same time in the past, at least not on my phone.

Now they are dropping Meshnet support in December, so I am trying to figure out if there's any way I can still run NordVPN and a Meshnet, or if I have to discard one.

If you know of any alternative, please let me know!

I thought of that, my problem is that I have another year of NordVPN subscription paid, and I don't want to waste it. But lesson learned, no more long subscriptions.

Thanks for the clarification!
