    It requires you to set up a server, so if you just want to play Minecraft with your friends, this isn't for you.

    Tailscale is supported on every major operating system (including mobile), it's super easy to get started and has been extremely reliable. It supports access rules and multiple users, and there is an open-source server you can host yourself if you don't want to use the provided one.

    SoftEther is backward compatible with OpenVPN, open source, multiplatform, supports layer 2 bridging (such as for connecting other protocols like IPX), but as a MEDIATED VPN (requiring no special set-up behind most NAT routers which allow outgoing traffic) it is not very widely supported nor convenient to set up by non-techsavvy users.

    Softether does not do nat traversal despite claiming it does. Even after setting everything up, my server still can't be reached by anyone outside my lan. Hamachi is made specifically for this and allows you to tunnel through your ISP nat that is blocking incoming connections.
