Wireguard is relatively simple. The VPN on my phone automatically connects when I disconnect from my home wifi, then it's like I'm at home.

Pfsense and maybe openwrt allow split horizon DNS that allows Wireguard tunnels to work seamlessly whether you’re on or off your home network. Took me years to figure out but it’s what I use now

Not requiring friends/family to use a client to access my services is so much simpler.

I also use Adguard which act a VPN to filter traffic. I dont feel like messing around to get both working.

I use Brave and never had a kneed for AdGuard, specifically because of how it uses VPN. Then I use Wireguard to seamlessly access my home setup. Honestly, I choose security and very little admin anxiety over random ads in other, non-browser apps or sites.

That's a cool feature. Do you run Android? How did you set this up?

I'm not the user you replied to, but I run a similar set-up using "WG Tunnel," which is available on F-Droid and the Play Store.

You can configure a WireGuard tunnel to auto-connect when you are not on a set list of "trusted networks."

Why the downvotes? Genuinely curious, I do this and don’t know of a downside after setup (with help from {AGENT})
