On the battery topic I’m curious if you have anything more than anecdotal evidence. A basic full tunnel wg network extension doesn’t affect battery in a noticeable or unacceptable way, in my experience. Is tailscale’s implementation doing more in a way you can isolate and attribute to poor battery?
- sixothree 2y agoI can see it (tailscale) in my battery usage on multiple devices. 20 hours of background usage per day is a bit much if you ask me.
