I also had the Alias 2, and then it became my mom’s phone after I moved on to my first smartphone (HTC One M7). Loved that stupid double flipping thing to death, such a great design with the e-paper or w/e for the buttons so they could change for the different perspective / context.
Sure, but that’s not the only benefit to having full control over the entire tiling interface. I enjoy building out the features and visuals I want in python. It’s fun to have that level of control.
Yeah I also use KDE on my desktop, though I have my laptop running QTile because the tile hotkeys are much more convinient than navigating with the trackpad.
I assume some instance’s don’t have a front-end with URL previewing, but I can see it on my instance’s alternate front-end (Alexandrite), and also on dbzer0’s default layout.
I love that even the URL preview shows an IP address lol.
The site just grabs the viewers current IP I imagine it’s probably whatever address is used by the instance to parse the URL and generate the preview, since it’s different if I view it on my instance, vs if I view it on the original post on dbzer0
If that is indeed the case you should report this issue with as much detail as possible to the Proton team, because it seems like qBit is behaving propperly and there’s some portion of Proton virtual adapter that is failing here.
I use Proton Vpn as well, but I have a custom wireguard interface & server switching script via their API that doesn’t run into the same issue you’re describing. So the issue must lie somewhere in the Linux GUI app.
Do you get the same issue if you try using an openvpn or wireguard config generated from logging into the proton vpn website? or maybe just from the CLI version of the app?
What you’re describing seems like intended behavior. Other than what someone else here noted about using the proton0 adapter rather than tun0, you should not have to do anything other than bind qBittorrent to your VPN’s adapter to stop leaking any and all IP information to the peer swarm.
When you use ipleak.net, you will see your current IP address at the top. This has nothing to do with qbittorrent. Farther down, you need to add the “Torrent Address detection” magnet link to qBittorrent, then that sectoin of the page will show what IP address is being broadcast by qBittorrent (which should match the IP shown at the top of the page when your VPJN adapter is present and active.)
If you have qBit bound to an adapter that is no longer present, you should see both the Speed chart on qBit drop to zero and the page’s Torrent Address section will stop updating since it will no longer be receiving any new traffic.
I’m all for this post, but I feel like someone needs to ask: What features from Youtube am I losing out on by using these alternate front-ends? (instead of just continuing the cat-and-mouse game between uBlock Origin and Google while at leat preserving the same features and UI that we’re already very mu ch comfortable with)
