vopono VS exomind

Vopono (https://github.com/jamesmcm/vopono):

"vopono is a tool to run applications through VPN tunnels via temporary network namespaces. This allows you to run only a handful of applications through different VPNs simultaneously, whilst keeping your main connection as normal.

vopono includes built-in killswitches for both Wireguard and OpenVPN."

I think for now on Linux you (still!) have to use external application to do the splitting. Such is vopono

I use vopono to manage it for me with Mullvad though.

you might want to check out vopono, i've gotten it working with firefox and its nice

I highly recommend using something like vopono with this on Linux that runs only the target application (e.g. Transmission) in a network namespace in the VPN and only forwards the specified ports and only allows traffic via the VPN.

This is why I use vopono - you can run just the torrent client in the VPN on its own and the killswitch keeps it safe.

You can find the option in the settings of windows and android apps. Unfortunately, it's Still not available for Linux. As a workaround for Linux, you can use vopono, which has OpenVPN support for Proton. Or just manually add routing table entries :)

I wrote vopono, I use it all the time for quickly spinning up browsers through different VPNs for checking geographical restrictions, etc.

Is your PDF reader open sourced? It's a feature I'd like to implement at some point in my own personal project (https://github.com/appaquet/exomind)

I just added a few screenshots in the README: https://github.com/appaquet/exomind

As for the Gmail integration, it is quite crude at the moment. I use it mostly to organize incoming emails, but I still use Gmail to send or reply to my emails. Exomind inbox is synchronized with Gmail, so all emails that you remove from one or the other get removed / archived on the other side. It also supports multiple accounts.

If you are interested to try and not afraid of the rough edges, just let me know. I added Discussions to the GitHub repository.

Exomind[1], a personal knowledge management tool that takes the form of a unified inbox in which you can have your emails, tasks, notes and bookmarks organized into collections. I have an iOS and a web/electron client at the moment. I plan to eventually add files (blobs), definitions and support extensibility via WASM applications.

Its backend (Exocore[2]) is built on top of a personal / private blockchain and is made from the ground up to be hosted in a semi-decentralized fashion on your own personal devices (your computer, raspberry pi, a cloud instance, etc.)

It has very rough edges, but I'm using it daily to organize my life. It has also been my learning playground to improve my Rust skills over the last two years. If all goes well, I'm a few months away from some kind of tech preview.
