   Simple tool

   I just needed an entry level tool to ping my sites and servers every minute and advise me if down so I can resolve the issue before the customer finds out.

   Also I didn't want to pay for checkers I didn't use

   🏁 Competitors: Pingdom, Freshping

   👍 Pros:    Easy to use

   👎 Cons:    None so far

• Stopping MDNSResponder from Sneakily Using DoH for DNS Lookups on macOS Ventura

  Agreed, though I combine using Little Snitch with Radio Silence: https://radiosilenceapp.com Little Snitch is great for when I want hyper granular control of a specific app's network permissions while Radio Silence gives me a super quick way to just block EVERYTHING for a particular app right away without even opening it the first time. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Little Snitch Mini

  I'm using radio silence for years and it is awesome :) https://radiosilenceapp.com. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Do You Use A 3rd Party Firewall App On Your Mac ?

  Forgot to mention Radio Silence (commercial), seen by many as an easier introduction vs Little Snitch. Source: over 1 year ago

• A little help

  Sorry for the late reply. I use Lulu which should be enough, but I also simultaneously use Radio Silence to be safe. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Little Snitch vs TripMode 3 - monitoring my web traffic

  Little Snitch (LS) is considered by many to be the gold standard. The aforementioned Lulu has a good reputation. The app Hands Off! Appears to be no longer developed (site offline). Then there's Radio Silence that may well fit your needs. Finally, one or more apps by Murus may be of interest but AFAIK these are not easy to configure and may be overkill for the average Mac user. I'm not familiar with TripMode. Source: over 2 years ago
