I pwned half of America's fast food chains, simultaneously
There's a very good relatively new open-source GUI firewall app like this called Portmaster:
It's available for Windows and Linux

Zen: Ad-blocker and privacy guard for Windows, MacOS and Linux
amazing work OP! what's the difference between zen and portmaster? :) i would like to compare options to see which one fits my needs the best way
- PSA: Intel Graphics Drivers Now Collect Telemetry by Default
-
Count me out on next releases
Then install https://safing.io/ (Portmaster); it's free.
-
Windows os with telemetry removed.
Lately I've been using Portmaster, which is basically a per process firewall so you can block the telemetry processes. https://safing.io/
- What are THE top security and privacy adjustments for a home computing system?
-
Cool projects to learn and contribute?
It may be a bit difficult to go into, since it is not a small project. We also have discord server if you have questions. http://safing.io
-
Best windows firewall for blocking windows telemetry
Oh I’m not sure what going on there. Another alternative I tried but it was too complicated for me was postmaster. It’s much more nuanced and customisable so try it and check if it fits more closely with your threat model.

OpenSnitch in Debian ready for prime time
Are you referring to Portmaster? https://github.com/safing/portmaster/
If so, it "is currently not available for macOS". https://docs.safing.io/portmaster/install/status/mac

Linux runtime security agent powered by eBPF
Yep, and from my experience too (made a tool that monitors network traffic with eBPF [1]) in addition to those issues there is also a sizable latency hit.
-
Monitor bandwidth usage with bandwhich (and build a snap package of it)
Similar to bandwhich, I recently created a snap of my own bandwidth monitor, picosnitch [1]. However I was only able to get it working with classic confinement (so it can't be published on the store) due to there being no snap interfaces for fanotify or BPF kfuncs.
I already packaged it for nearly every distro, but unfortunately most don't have dash [2] in their repos so the user needs to install it separately, and I was hoping that snap would be an easier solution for that.

What kind of applications are missing from the Linux ecosystem?
I created picosnitch which can do this
I made an app called picosnitch which does this on a per app basis.
-
Help identifying which process is sending network requests
You can use picosnitch for this, I'm the developer and this is exactly the use case I had in mind when designing it (24/7 monitoring of traffic on a per executable basis, primarily in containerized environments).
-
Little Snitch Mini
I wrote picosnitch [1] which has the same notification and bandwidth monitoring features, however it doesn't block traffic for a couple reasons: avoiding scope creep so I can focus on more reliable detection and do things like hash every executable, which makes it harder to block traffic in a timely fashion.
-
System monitor that lists network usage for each process
I also wrote a program (picosnitch) which is newer than that list and has a bunch of features none of those other tools have, in case you're interested in checking it out!
Yep, picosnitch does this and has a web interface with graphs you can launch by typing picosnitch dash in your terminal. Disclaimer, I'm the author of it.

linux security
which basically says launchpad builds the package directly from that repository, which states: This repository is an import of the Git repository at https://github.com/elesiuta/picosnitch.git.

Linux software list. Discussion and advice welcome!
picosnitch - monitors and hashes programs that connect to the internet, and can check them with VirusTotal.
