Ask HN: Rewrite Project or Abandon It?
Hi people,
I need your advice and opinion.
I have a project on GitHub that I wasn't updating for a while:
https://github.com/ivanilves/xiringuito
And it still works kinda OK for me, but technically it's a hard to maintain gibberish and I'm thinking about rewriting it in a statically compiled language, add unit testing and be able to incorporate different advanced features without making myself and others cry.
HOWEVER: I doubt this makes sense and fear to just lose time on it.
Could you please help me with a decision:
If you think it's worth rewriting, add a GitHub star on https://github.com/ivanilves/xiringuito
If you think it's a pile of shite and it should die, no problem, just ignore it :)
It already has 954 stars for now and if number of stars goes 1k+ this month, I'll rewrite it. If not, it would be a sign it's a [c/t]rap and I need to run away and forget ;)
THANK YOU!

The NSA is just from taking over the internet
https://github.com/StreisandEffect/streisand
Streisand sets up a new server running your choice of WireGuard, OpenConnect, OpenSSH, OpenVPN, Shadowsocks, sslh, Stunnel, or a Tor bridge. It also generates custom instructions for all of these services. At the end of the run you are given an HTML file with instructions that can be shared with friends, family members, and fellow activists.

Russia has started indiscriminately blocking all OpenVPN/WireGuard connections
Unfortunately, that's to the Great Firewall of China, there has been a lot of resources put in to fingerprint VPNs and block them by state actors.
Fortunately, however, there is equally years of some of the smartest minds on the planet working to bypass Chinese censorship, so there are some great OpenVPN alternatives.
I really encourage you to look into something like Shadowsocks which Chinese people have found great success in using over the last several years.
It's quite sad that projects like Streisand[0] were archived, but I'm sure there are other alternatives that might make it just as easy to roll onto a server.

Ask HN: 2023 Alternative to the Streisand Project
The Streisand Project[0] provided easy installation of well-configured certs, VPNs and various other software on cloud instances. It was great for travelling internationally: run the script and after a few minutes one had a cloud instance and everything one needed to securely access the Internet through one’s own country.
Unfortunately, it was archived in 2021. Is there anything in 2023 which approaches it? I’ve seen Algo[1], but I don’t believe it does as much to help one to avoid packet filtering. It’s also based on Ubuntu rather than Debian, which seems like a mistake with security-conscious server software.

NRIs : Do you use Indian subscriptions abroad to save money?
It basically works like any normal VPN. Setting it up is quite easy, you just need a VPS and setup Streisand by following their guide.

I don’t want my landlord to see my website activities, any VPN recommendations? What do you think of VPN providers such as Nord, Express VPN? Is it safe to use free VPN such as Hola? I need a VPN that will not slow down my Internet speed (100M) and safe as well.
You are better off renting a cloud server and rolling your own, e.g. using Streisand, Algo or my own Edgewalker

- I don't think this is much of a hacking but the internet is going to shutdown in my country and I don't know how to cross internet blockage.

How do you stay secure?
For a VPN, I use Streisand (https://github.com/StreisandEffect/streisand) running on a box in a datacenter in Iceland. I also occasionally use other VPNs. I turn off the VPN on my gaming PC when playing specific games.
