Tailscalar here.
Tailscale traffic flows directly between your devices in every situation we can make it work. E2E encrypted packets are relayed by our proxies (DERP servers) only when we cannot make a direct connection. This is rare, currently less than 5% of bytes get relayed and we hope to keep pushing that number lower.
