mozilla-vpn-client VS Signal-Desktop

The summary seems to ignore upstream.

They did infact

removed polkit : https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/mozilla-vpn-client/pull/70...

refactor auth using D-Bus: https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/mozilla-vpn-client/pull/71...

These are why author's PR was dropped.

git clone https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/mozilla-vpn-client.git cd mozilla-vpn-client git submodule update --init

RTNETLINK answers: Network is unreachable

So I intentionally decided not to have IPv4 connectivity system wide to catch apps with issues in IPv6 only environment and then carefully evaluate issues and report them to authors: https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/mozilla-vpn-client/issues/... https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Desktop/issues/4121

Dual stack setups tend to hide IPv6 implementation issues and may create illusion that app is IPv6 compatible but in reality it's not.

Clearly my setup is too hostile for home users but as developer I enjoy it a lot.

Mozilla VPN is still in "beta testing" mode, and while everyone works out issues with clients, subscriptions, and all the other fun, it's better to limit the scope of a test. Mozilla VPN will roll out into more countries over time, and if yo want to know when, there's a "join the waitlist"-button on https://vpn.mozilla.org/.

A CLI is available - never used it in a headless environment yet. Hope that helps :) https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/mozilla-vpn-client/blob/main/docs/Command-line-interface.md

No. The Firefox Private Network browser extension offers set and forget network protection while you shop, bank, and browse in Firefox. It’s lightweight and simple. A VPN is a more robust software application that allows location switching. It’s a separate app you install to secure everything on your device that connects to the internet, including all browsers, social media apps, and banking apps. Learn more if you’re interested in our VPN.

Having said that, people can only track you if you make connections to their domains. If you don't even want the owner of a site you visit directly to know you visit it, use Mozilla VPN (if available in your country) or a slower free alternative like Tor or VPN Gate.

There was a issue opened on GitHub a while back apparently but that was closed due to inactivity. What you might want to do is either open a new issue directly in GitHub (provide as much information as possible and include debug logs) or just send them a support ticket via the support form (and include debug logs).

Desktop will have it https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Desktop/commit/9bfbee464bc307a9133ccf43042987343722afe9

Issues have been ongoing for the past couple weeks. It's not clear if this is the client or backend. Dual stack works again with v6.20.2, but IPv6-only with NAT64 still doesn't. Actively being worked on, and hopefully some good learnings. Issue link thread: https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Desktop/issues/6439

Alive again with 6.20.2 on Windows dual stack. Directly downloaded from https://signal.org/download/
