LuLu VS RDM

There's Lulu based on Apple's Network Extension framework but there's quite a few issues with framework itself (it will briefly initiate a connection even though there's a deny rule for that address etc).

You could install WPD (https://wpd.app/), use Simplewall (https://github.com/henrypp/simplewall) and a pihole on the network to block a lot, but it's still sad that we need to do this.

Apple alternatives include LuLu (https://github.com/objective-see/LuLu)

LuLu is probably the most user-friendly application.

The worst thing that could happen is that one of the governments would specifically ask Apple for the data of everyone in your area, or just you. I don't know how bad this is for you, but with open source programs like LuLu, you can see how much data your computer is sending to Apple in the background without you noticing.

There's also a free (open source) equivalent available, called Lulu: https://github.com/objective-see/LuLu

jok, https://github.com/objective-see/LuLu

Lulu is open source and free, with 7.8k stars on GitHub.

LuLu is a free alternative for LittleSnitch

Download this tool and try out one of the „⚡️“ resolution options it‘ll give you in the menu bar.

another tool i highly recommend is Retina Display Menu (RDM).

In the mean time however, I can recommend a free application that I found worked wonders for my display. While I tried BetterDisplay, and love everything the developer does, I found when changing resolution the process was a bit clunky. Instead I recommend RDM. It is as easy as installing the application, opening it, clicking the little icon in the menu bar, and selecting a resolution with a little lightning bolt next to it (HiDPi resolution) which should give you a crisp, well scaled, external monitor. Then every time you restart your max it should automatically open the application and apply these settings!

i've never understood how to install these repositories form GitHub, how do i install this one? https://github.com/avibrazil/RDM

The software they discuss, RDM (https://github.com/avibrazil/RDM), allows you to force a specific resolution, and will likely send you down the right path. To use this, You will probably have to change the resolution before you launch your game, and then change it back afterwards, otherwise you’ll find yourself losing items behind the notch in the menu bar.

Use RDM https://github.com/avibrazil/RDM Still working on my M1 Mac mini on latest beta

use RDM or other forks to create hidpi res and stuffs will look good :p

Yeah, using non-Apple monitors with a mac is a pain. Try "Retina Display Manager" - https://github.com/avibrazil/RDM - as it allows you to switch to the sharper HiDPI resolutions supported on your monitor.
