  • I set this up a while ago, so the services are a little dated there might be something better.

    I also use speedify, and I use 10, yes 10, different mullvad VPN connections.

    I have three internet connections at home. Each of the three connections has a wire guard connection to my two closest mullvad cities and one connection across the Pacific.

    Speedify sees the wireguard tunnels, and each of the three uplinks. And I can use that to aggregate all the different pathways and do a first pass the post race for every packet.

    Every packet gets replicated 13 times, and it races across the ocean, and the first one there gets delivered to the destination.

    It’s great for gaming! I was able to shave off 65 milliseconds of latency to game servers across the ocean.

    Is this wasteful? Absolutely, but it’s fun! The reason I use 10 mullvad connections is just because you get 5 simultaneous logins per account.

    There’s a couple different ways to set this up, Linux network name spaces, really intricate wire guard configurations, VLANs. I went with VLANs, it was the most robust and portable across different devices.

    Discord’s main killer feature is Discovery of who is currently voice chatting in a room.

    I’ve not seen any alternative platform that has the same level of voice discovery that discord does. Discord makes it easy to have a community, oh I see Bob’s online, let’s jump in and say hi.

    It really is the local bar, you can just walk up and talk to anybody. That is absolutely critical. It’s open discovery, it’s effortless communication of status.
