gluetun bundles a control server on port 8000 which you can query for the port number (don’t worry about openvpn being in the url path, it still works with Wireguard). In my bash script (running on the host system), I use curl to retrieve the forwarded port number and then do a POST with that data to the API of my qbt client which is running in another container on port 8080.

Based. I use gluetun with qbt and ProtonVPN (with port forwarding). Despite this being a tricky config, it was still pretty easy to setup. Can share bash scripts if anyone is interested.

This isn’t always an issue with your adblocker. When it comes to bypassing paywalls, I can’t recommend 12ft.io and archive.is enough.

Anyone that has done software/hardware development knows that more new features usually means more bugs/broken stuff. I’m always glad to see stability/minor updates

+1 for Adguard, link for convenience. No need to pay either, the free tier is more than adequate.

I use this one; works great for both peripherals and external hdds.

probably to avoid cannibalising sales on the steam/gog side

Blackhole: Allows you to split/duplicate/route audio between apps on your Mac.

One of the first things I always install is an Adblocker.

• Safari: AdGuard (free tier is fine)
• Firefox: uBlock origin
• Chrome: uBlock origin

Is Mac better with Steam and games now?

It could be soon. Apple just dropped their Game Porting Toolkit last month.

I use Safari with the AdGuard (free tier) app. Haven’t seen a YouTube ad in months.
