alt Hacker NewsHow do you find your typical daily battery life with it always on?
I’ve tried this in the past and had to revert as I found it made a noticeable difference in my day-to-day.
Curious to hear the experience of others.

I have an ipv6 wireguard vpn from my iOS phone to my home network. It routes all traffic through my home isp. I use the wireguard iOS client. Battery life has been fine for me. One caveat is that background updates are disabled for almost every app.

Was it OpenVPN that you tried in the past? Wireguard seems much better
I have the impression tailscale drains my battery on macOS and iOS, only turn it on when truly needed.
