They have an install script that makes this much easier. https://github.com/tailscale-dev/deck-tailscale

I summed up the steps:

Create an account at https://login.tailscale.com/start

Open Konsole and copy-paste the following commands, then hit enter to run them:

git clone https://github.com/tailscale-dev/deck-tailscale.git; cd deck-tailscale

sudo bash tailscale.sh

source /etc/profile.d/tailscale.sh

sudo tailscale up --qr --operator=deck --ssh This will give you a QR code, that you need to scan with your phone. You will have to log in to Tailscale to add the Steam Deck to your Tailscale network.

Try running sudo tailscale update

If this works, i.e. if you don’t get any error messages, run sudo tailscale set --auto-update

If you use Decky Loader, I recommend installing the Tailscale Control plugin, which lets you control Tailscale from the Steam menu. You can also use KTailctl to control it from desktop mode.

Tailscale might be the easiest and best solution for this. It’s like Hamachi, but more modern and much better. They even have a guide on how to set it up on the Steam Deck: https://tailscale.com/blog/steam-deck

I tried Floorp and didn’t like it either, I’m glad there’s a more promising looking project out there now. Still great to see more development in the Firefox/Gecko ecosystem. We don’t need more Chromium garbage.
