I’m running out of mullvad in 23hr, and I’m excited to have port forwarding back! Hit a small snag though: I have the acct and have Eddie running on my phone as I type this, however when it comes to my Fedora install I’m paralyzed by choice.

Should I install:

  1. Eddie GUI,

  2. Eddie CLI,

  3. both those,

  4. or “Suite - based on our own AirVPN OpenVPN 3 library?”

I’m pretty comfortable with CLI especially if there’s docs (actually prefer it typically), so that isn’t really my concern. I’d like wireguard though which I’m not sure if “suite” yet supports, and port forwarding is the most important (slsk) so that would sway my decision as well (if it’s only working on Eddie gui or something, for instance.)

My other main concern is I want the ability to auto connect to the VPN during the bootstrap, which “Suite” says it can do with bluetit, but idk if eddie CLI or GUI can do it. Would it be worth it to ditch wireguard until Suite supports it in favor of the bootstrap connection?

Any info at all that y’all have on these clients would be much appreciated, thank you.

    Alright I’ll probably go this route, is there a recommended wireguard client for fedora you’re aware of by chance? Dnf search shows a wireguard-tools.x86_64 unless another I can get an .rpm for elsewhere is better.

      Sorry, I’ve not used a redhat based distro in at least 20 years, so you’re going to have to get that info from someone else. I’d assume that’s the one though, and I doubt you need to go looking for something better. It is what it is.
