Incredible. LittleSnitch is must-have for macOS and trying to get equivalent functionality on Linux was painful. So very happy to see this, and very happy to give the developers at Objective Development my money.
Did not know about LittleSnitch, will definitely check it out.
Anything new to get much better performance from low-spec machines that is idiot-proof is a game-changer.
I remember before Little Snitch there was ZoneAlarm for Windows[0] (here is a good screenshot[1]). No clue if the current version of ZoneAlarm does anything like that (have not used it in 2 decades). I always found it weird that Linux never really had anything like it. [0]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZoneAlarm [1]: https://d2nwkt1g6n1fev.cloudfront.net/helpmax/wp-content/upl...

Earlier quoted context omitted.
It is free, no subscription at all and truly open source. As software should be.

Completely forgot about ZoneAlarm. I remember using it in the early 2000s!
