Hi @Lotusrootsoup, we don't have it yet but this is often requested feature, see
https://github.com/netbirdio/netbird/issues/1138
https://github.com/netbirdio/netbird/issues/289
https://github.com/netbirdio/netbird/issues/528

I want to confirm this is part of our public roadmap and work planned for March 2024

@Lotusrootsoup I believe it can be closed due to introduction of dedicated Exit Nodes?

@nazarewk dedicated exit nodes are not a replacement for the feature being requested here. Tailscale's mullvad integration turns tailscale into a coordination service and your internet-bound traffic exits through mullvad's exit nodes automatically. In order to do the same with netbird presently you need to turn one of your own nodes into a wireguard peer node and do the routing between the VPNs yourself.

I want to add that I would also really like to see this feature. Be it mullvad or some other privacy VPN provider. Its the only thing that keeps me on tailscale atm.
Having netbird handle the authentication with the privacy VPN provider adds another stage that makes it even more difficult to identify you than just using a privacy VPN standalone.
Is there some roadmap for it?

Likewise this is the only missing feature that prevents me from switching from Tailscale to Netbird. The rest looks superb.
