[FR] Polkit integration for Linux #1395

Open epicbattle1 opened 3 weeks ago

epicbattle1 commented 3 weeks ago

Feature description

It would be extremely convenient if the program had polkit integration to allow switching to VPN mode for Linux users without launching the app as root

epicbattle1 commented 3 weeks ago

Just found out that using VPN service mode causes polkit to pop-up, so why is this not the case with regular VPN mode?

h7lv2 commented 2 weeks ago

To add to this, running GUI apps as root is a giant can of worms. I don't think that should be advised by the app at all.
