I stumbled across Diode whilst looking for ways to do secure off-site backups (to my own equipment at another house) and it feels like a paid-for TOR (Ok, there is a free option)
I’m looking for any real experience as the site has too much marketing lingo in it:
Every Client is secured with a public/private key self-custody identity
And this doesn’t seem very dynamic if I want to change something:
Diode’s Blockchain Name System can be used for Client friendly names
And somewhere on the site it infers unlimited storage…!
So, is the free option worth me looking into, or is it a waste of time?


What I’m reading is that you want site-to-site connectivity. Wireguard + possibly dynamic DNS makes this pretty easy (assuming you can open ports and configure NAT at your sites). Or you could set up some other VPN solution like OpenVPN.
There’s also tailscale (a paid service) for facilitating the wireguard setup, NAT traversal and relaying. headscale is a self hosted solution that aims to provide something similar (but more limited in scope).
