Lemme just say... Wow. Wireguard... It's so incredibly simple and elegant. I cannot believe how easy and how little reading it needed to set it up.

And unlike OpenVPN, the Android client is even able to override the system's DNS servers, meaning I can finally start blocking nosy apps from contacting their big brothers in the cloud via DNS blackholing!

Wow. Wireguard... 10/10. Simple, fast to set up, elegant.

Really? I couldn't figure out how to set up wireguard and finally gave up and had openVPN set up in minutes both locally and on a server

@Hazarth Odd... The only slightly confusing part about Wireguard is the meaning of configuration parameters depends on the section of the configuration file. AllowedIPs can either be a list of IPs a client can present with... Or the IP addresses that are to be forwarded through to the given peer for example.

The configuration starts getting messy once you require the clients to be able to talk to each other through the tunnel. That... I can understand that OpenVPN can do in a more simple way.

Uh, despite wireguard elegance which I heard too, I installed openvpn as well, because it took me only few minutes and ubuntu comes with pre-installed openvpn client

Wishing to try wireguard later anyway. I heard its code 25 times less bloated.
4k code lines wiregard against 100k openvpn

@darkwind that's true.

Though Wireguard is not comparable to OpenVPN at all... OpenVPN is an aggregation of several stacks and protocols, while Wireguard is "just" an encrypted tunnel.

I think the biggest trouble are CARP | KeepAlive redundancy based setups as they do not work with wireguard.

Anyone knows if this works nowadays?
