Funny how similar this is to the famous comment on Dropbox's Launch HN post in 2007.

"1. For a Linux user, you can already build such a system yourself quite trivially by getting an FTP account, mounting it locally with curlftpfs, and then using SVN or CVS on the mounted filesystem. From Windows or Mac, this FTP account could be accessed through built-in software."

Yeah that makes sense. I personally feel like the tailscale + terminal emulator solution is pretty limited compared to Omnara's interface, and there's also 0 hassle of maintaining anything on your own with Omnara. You can try out Omnara for free, and see if you like it before paying! 10 sessions can get you pretty far, and there's no limit on the session length.

Agreed. In a post-CC world anyone can build this for themselves so easily. Especially since their entire supposed customer base already uses these tools to begin with.

True, certainly something you could do with Tailscale+tmux but if this makes that a lot easier then it could end up being popular, increasingly the people who are pushing the most money into the likes of Anthropic are not rhe people focusing too much on the amount of money being put towards achieving their goal, rather the progress(tbh more realistic to say perceived progress) towards that goal in the shortest amount of time.

You are cheap! So am I! We're developers. Just ask Claude to use the Claude chrome extension MCP and have it setup Tailscale for you. Not to be rude, but we as developers have to learn not to smell our own farts and think they're gold. I had Claude shit out a shell script that's useful for me, and for people like me, but holy hell, that does not a startup charging $20/month make.

Welcome to the new economy.
