Ive setup Tailscale and i can only start it from the terminal, the GUI toggle to turn it on or off wont work. The button responds to turning it off but it comes back on again after a second, I have to run ‘tailscale down’ from the terminal to turn it off.
Try Trayscale, available as a Flatpak.
Did you set the right permissions before first time use? See details here:

Oh, yeah! That too! As you could do it from the terminal, I did not think about it, but you need to set user permission to be able to use it without sudo, which is needed for the GUI.

This pointed me to the right solution. From the article I tried tailscale set --operator="$(getent passwd "$PKEXEC_UID" | cut -d: -f1)" but it didn’t work.
Using sudo tailscale set --operator=$USER worked. Thank you!
