To me split tunneling just sounds like "traffic matching certain rules is routed differently", and the rules depend on the configuration 🤷
Like mobile protonvpn lets you include/exclude certain apps/ips; desktop wireguard has allowed ips, etc.
Well yeah it just means that you’re not routing all your internet traffic through a VPN.
What I was wondering is how that’s actually help in this scenario. But the answer is it doesn’t, he just gave up and stopped using the VPN for Reddit traffic lol.
Yap, basically. Look, I never said it was a good solution 🤣
