I keep having my phone completely drained of battery over night, and im not sure why.. Each night the phone will easy chew through 30-40% battery. Only thing that helps is putting it in battery saving mode. But feels like a temporary solution.
The second most used app is at 7% percent usage.
Am running GrapheneOS, anyone else struggling with this?
After checking on tailscale privacy policy, I also suggest to drop tailscale and use mullvadvpn if you live in EU or US (it is great) or protonvpn. You can install WG Tunnel from F-Droid and add wireguard configuration from your VPN provider as well. It is consume only 1-3% during the day on my device.
It's not comparable. Tailscale creates a virtual network between your devices allowing to reach your server outside your home while other mentioned services create a virtual network to someone else's server
If you want to preserve privacy while utilizing Tailscale's functions beyond a VPN, one can deploy Headscale on their own infra and be free from any spying.
