pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 766c8ee655 say what the mobile app actually is, rather than overclaiming it
"our implementation of the same protocol rather than a wrapper around theirs"
was too strong. It is the Tailscale client with our branding, and one real
difference: it takes an invite from the server directly.

The corrected version is not a weaker claim, it is a more specific one. "Our own
implementation" invites the question of whether it is trustworthy and whether it
keeps up; "the Tailscale client, our branding, and it takes an invite directly"
answers both — it is their client, so it is as good as their client, and the
thing it adds is the thing that was hard.

The reason it is hard stays in, since it is what makes the difference worth
naming: the official app has to be talked into using a server that is not
Tailscale's, and that is where people abandon self-hosted headscale. And it still
says there are no desktop apps of our own, now with what to do instead.
