> Sorry but no you don't

Yes, I really do.

I specifically want my traffic to “leak” from my VPN when traveling away from home, because my home internet upload speed is slow and I don’t want it to bottleneck everything else on my device. I only want the tunnel to be used when I am talking to my LAN.

Similarly when I’m at home and using my work VPN, I want a split tunnel there too. I don’t want every bit of traffic going over the VPN tunnel, because my work network tends to have congestion, and if I’m streaming music or something to listen to, there’s no reason that should have to go throufh my work’s network.

Before saying “nuh uh!” every time someone disagrees with you, maybe stop and consider that people have different use cases from you?

No you don't, you need a normal (for example) ssh-tunnel, not a "VPN"...trust me ;)

You want to actively weakening a system that was made for one thing only (a point to point encrypted tunnel with no exceptions of data flow), but hey go on and make your setup a cobbled mess, but don't cry about leaked information.

Yes I do. (See how tiring this is getting?)

I don’t want an SSH tunnel when wireguard does the same thing but faster and with an iOS app that works correctly out of the box. I’m aware of SSH tunnels and that’s how I used to do things back in 2008 but times have changed and wireguard is infinitely better at that use case.

Nobody’s talking about weakening anything here, you’re coming into a conversation where someone said “use cases differ”, and you’re trying to deny that reality… every time someone shows you a different use case you childishly shout “nuh uh” and act like such a use case is wrong because it invalidates your point.

A split tunnel VPN is a valid use case, period. It’s not the only use case. People who want full tunnel where all traffic goes through the tunnel, ALSO have a valid use case. But it doesn’t mean split tunnel is not a thing, and it doesn’t mean people who want split tunnels are wrong.

No problem have fun.
