One nice thing about LittleSnitch on linux is that it comes with a web UI by default. Is there anything like that for headless systems using OpenSnitch?
I get the appeal; the Little Snitch UI is undeniably shiny. But for the headless Linux nodes in my Proxmox setup, I’ve never really felt the need for a proprietary dashboard just to see my network state. I’d much rather export my logs to something like Grafana or just check my AdGuard dashboard at the edge. It feels more "Linux" to keep the tools transparent and open than to invite a mystery binary onto my system just for the sake of a pretty graph.
Glad you also talk about OpenSnitch. It is critical to have it installed.
OpenSnitch and PiHole are simply a must on every network.
for folks on the mac, Lulu has been a great option too. https://github.com/objective-see/LuLu
Can you elaborate on ideal pairing?
How anyone could trust OpenSnitch is beyond me.
Please elaborate
