  • Clash, used to break China's Great Fire Wall, is deleted in GitHub

    being one of the developers of the Clash core (https://github.com/Dreamacro/clash) and its closed-source (free of charge) premium version (clash-premium), i'm really heartbroken seeing this - everything is tearing down.

    even without the context of being in China or Iran, Clash is still an awesome piece of software that can be used everywhere, with proper understanding of computer networking.

    i ain't sure if both Dreamacro and Fndroid are physically safe now, but i'm sure they are both physically in mainland China.

    Now, I have been meaning to set up a Clash proxy to set my whole network to use ProtonVPN (via Wireguard) and possibly add other nicities to it such as Tor and I2P access, simply because it supports it and ... well, I can. :)

    I feel you man. But check this out. It's a proxy server provider that i used before, they provide two Taiwan proxy servers for free and set up all the protocols for you. It's so much easier than setting up things on your own server by yourself. It's pretty stable as my experience. And you need a proxy client to use it, I recommend clash. Basically you just install clash and download profiles on the provider's website. Then you run clash -f path_to_your_profile, and set environment variable http_proxy and https_proxy to the port that clash is listening to. Usually it's 7890, so you set environment variables http_proxy=http://127.0.0.1:7890 and https_proxy=http://127.0.0.1:7890 for example and all done. It won't take too much time to set it up, but you need to do some translation work to that website, it's Chinese because who else in this world need to use this thing anyway.

    Hi, unlike X-ray panel which has a very straightforward procedure to set it up and running on VPS, there is absolutely no guide on how to set up clash, I'm kindly asking is anyone here is knowledgeable about running clash step by step.
