limitations of Openvpn CE?
We also back several OpenVPN related drivers, such as tap-windows6 driver, ovpn-dco-win driver, ovpn-dco linux kernel module. The tap-windows6 driver is the old Windows driver, which gives a pretty basic tun/tap interface. The DCO drivers are the next generation drivers, where more of the cryptographic operations are moved into the OS kernel instead of happening inside the OpenVPN Core components; which has the potential to improve the tunnel performance.

Openvpn issue with dyndns and android
Just the android phone with Openvpn for Android (https://github.com/schwabe/ics-openvpn) thinks that it's too good for a new dns lookup, takes the ip it has cached from the previous connection and therefore can't connect. It retries until i manually disconnect and reconnect it. Only then a new dns lookup happens and it gets the current ip to then connect without a problem.

OpenVPN keeps using cellular while in WiFi: what to do?
I know that Apple limits what you're permitted to install on their phones, but perhaps there's another openvpn version that has this feature that you're permitted to use. In case it can help, the version I'm using seems to be from https://github.com/schwabe/ics-openvpn/ . Perhaps someone has done something similar for Apple phones.

Does anyone know how to use SagerNet or another FOSS app to achieve what is being done by Every Proxy in the NetGuard+pDNSf+VPN guide?
I've been looking into doing something similar and stumbled upon a method that uses personalDNSfilter with OpenVPN for personalDNSfilter, which is a special version of the OpenVPN for Android app.
