stratux.me down
1 project | /r/stratux | 12 May 2023

stratux.me seems to be non-functional. I think this has been mentioned on here before. Maybe have it redirect to the github page? Is this the github page we should be using? https://github.com/cyoung/stratux

Looking for program that will show me how much I've uploaded and downloaded over the billing cycle for my ISP
1 project | /r/linuxquestions | 7 May 2023

I've previously used vnstat for this, it can break it down for different time periods and stuff. Seems to also separate between devices, so if you're using a cable at home and wifi elsewhere you'd still get a good estimate of your home usage I guess.

Looking for a program to monitor how much data I used on a particular wifi connection
1 project | /r/commandline | 30 Jul 2021

If you want to connect to multiple networks, but log only one, then you'd have to manually start/stop data collection, though. https://github.com/vergoh/vnstat/issues/128
