Ask HN: Have you created programs for only your personal use?
I have written these sorts of things, but I do try and put them up on GitHub if I think they’ll be useful to other people. I wrote a tool unimaginatively named wsl-ssh-pageant [0] which I wanted because I use a YubiKey for my SSH key but wanted it to be available in WSL. It has been by far my most popular GitHub project.
I do have other things as well, some on GitHub some not. A scraper to notify me when a local gym booking website changes for a time I’m interested in. A bridge between a BroadLink RM4 and HomeKit for some fans [1] - I wanted to avoid home-assistant. A script to grab my power consumption data. A shim to make gpg-agent compatible with launchd’s socket activation protocol [2].

OpenSnitch is a GNU/Linux port of the Little Snitch application firewall
i use a kind of tui. it is actually a gui, pops up fullscreen. you can’t click it though, just keypress interaction.
i agree with you. especially if i’m filtering all traffic, i need to be able to y/n quickly and easily.

Wayland Keylogger (2021)
> There isn't even a single decent dynamic firewall with those annoying popups.
even benign apps that phone home like pulumi and terraform are fun to see and block with annoying popups.
monitoring egress really is the only realistic play. i rolled my own[1], inspired by opensnitch[2].
netfilter_queue is really great, and definitely makes annoying popup dynamic firewalls possible.
