I'm a linux user and I want plenty more than just a VPN connection. I want the icon that tells me the VPN is connected. I want the GUI that lets me manage which server I am connecting to and which servers are the most loaded at a particular moment. I want to control from which country my traffic appears on the public internet. I want the little graph showing me that my traffic is indeed flowing over the VPN service. I want a kill switch daemon ready to cut off my traffic should the VPN connection fail. And I want all of that without having to edit any scripts.

- johnchristopher 5y agoDoes KDE network manager still delete the VPN entry at the end of the setting up process if there is an error in the config ? Anyway, I was just looking how to add a WG VPN entry in kubuntu 18.04 but its version of KDE is a bit behind so CLI it is. I'd settle for an independent KDE widget though.
