I’ve set up a phone with Rethink DNS as a permanent VPN, so nothing can come through, I tried putting KDE Connect in the Bypass Universal list, but it still fails to discover devices on the network and in turn it can’t be discovered by others itself.
I tried without VPN active and it all works, of course. Is it possible for the 2 to coexist? If so, what settings should I change?
Right, the Mullvad app now has a warning that Android’s “block connections without VPN” disables both split tunneling and local network discovery. So it must be off when using KDE connect.
Yes, I believe the issue comes from that(edit: tried disabling it and it was indeed that), ideally one would keep that setting on, I guess there’s no internal Android setting to exclude on an app by app basis unfortunately
