    WireGuard on mobile battery drain - my tests

    Last month I tested WireGuard on my Pixel 6, kept it on 24/7 too, and yeah the battery drain was noticeable. I ended up just turning it on only when I needed privacy or was on untrusted networks.

    DR/DA metrics - do they actually matter much?

    Dedicated IP VPN use cases - is the extra privacy risk even worth it?

    Last month i realized i was confusing dedicated IPs with static IPs. Dedicated IPs are often shared with others but just assigned to u, not unique to u. Tip - check if ur VPN offers true static IP if u need one, not just dedicated IPs.

    WireGuard vs OpenVPN vs IKEv2 - My speed test breakdown

    Haha, speed tests are like BBQs, always gotta taste different sides. Pro tip: run your tests on different times of day, server load and network stability can change everything. Sometimes the fastest in tests ain't the best for daily use, so keep an eye on real-world stability too.
