I was just thinking if you are on your computer anyway would it just use some of the excess electricity that your computer would have wasted or would it be worse than charging your phone from a charger while using your laptop separately.

    I think that’s more about the scale than it is about the fediverse.

    Effectively you’re asking about a quarter cup of water where the answer isn’t even clear. Wireless charging is a bit wasteful though.

    I still appreciate your asking, because there’s been interesting discussion in the answers.
