A bit off-topic, but are there any Tailscale users here who consistently use it on mobile? How was the speed and battery life? I see that Tailscale offers a lot of nifty features like this that go beyond setting up a VPN, but if the overhead is too big it might not be worth running at all.

    I don't use it 24/7 but I do use it for extended periods of time when testing a product I work on. It's fine.

    It's generally pretty fast, about what I'd expect if I was connecting to the box directly (which you technically are, I believe). Battery drain is probably a thing, but I honestly haven't noticed; my phone battery pretty much only needs a charge by nighttime, same as it was pre-tailscale.
