I can now SSH into my server from my phone.
I have learned that android, typically, won't let you use a standalone wireguard tunnel inside another VPN because the wireguard app sets up like another VPN and that's evidently a no-no. It's annoying.
Does anyone know a way around this? I really don't like disabling my normal VPN to run a tunnel to my server.
