Do you not run into issues doing this? I'm constantly having to split my VPN or disable my VPN for certain logins to work, such as banks, government sites and shit.
Most people don't need to run everything though a VPN. That just slows everything down. You would normally only use them to access resources on a private LAN such as when working from home or accessing your self hosted services when away from home.
That's a completely different VPN than what the rest the comments are talking about
For some games and websites I have to turn it off yeah. Or at least switch the server to one that isn't blocked.
It's a shame that websites are allowed to track and block VPNs.
Seperate browser for Clearnet /KYC
For example "mullvad-exclude trivalent"
I actually go further and have seperate VMs with different networks (VPN1, VPN2, whonix, i2p, or clearnet
That way split tunneling feature Is not needed and I can have 2 mullvad clients on lockdownmode connected at once
What's lockdown mode. I use PIA because it was cheap about 5 years ago and never had any issues so I havent shopped around. I don't have a dedicated IP which I would have liked, they offer them but I haven't convinced myself I need it yet. I figure if anyone else (not family) needs to access a site that points to my IP I'll do it then.
Maybe I haven't been understanding/using caddy and such properly, but how do you really get multiple servers running without 80/443 not having overlap. Like right now I have 53 for my Pihole internally, 8096 Jellyfin, 3923 for a file server, can't remember what my RustDesk server is on, but I wanted to set up a Piefed instance, and obviously I'm running into issues with ports overlapping because I must not be understanding how to forward / reverse proxy them properly.
Do you set up caddy on your individual VM's and use a separate IP for each. Can I just tie a URL from NOIP to a specific port outside of 80/443 somehow?
That's why I temporarily disable it for some websites
