  RE: https://mastodon.social/@rdns/117309938052519979 v058 adds much needed improvements and bug fixes over v057, including optimizing significantly for battery use. It also adds Tasker / Macrodroid integration to automate WireGuard (that is, automate starting / stopping, pausing / resuming multiple WireGuard sessions). Try it out! https://rethinkdns.com/download GitHub: https://github.com/celzero/rethink-app/releases/v0.5.8 Discussion on Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/rethinkdns/comments/1...

  Russian-language "bots" have been rating us 1 star for months on Play Store to cumulatively tank our 4.3 rating down to 3.8. We've now opted out of certain geo locations to prevent this. Unsure if it is a targeted op. Rethink has been quite popular for a while in those parts.

  The app has improved on every metric (crash rates below) but the ratings (bots? [0]) are down! (Rethink is at 3.6 stars 28-day rolling average, as of today) [0] https://mastodon.social/@rdns/117446503055762487

  RE: https://todon.eu/@tek/117448473575367692 We're working on a feature to only allow all the top 1M domains (form the Tranco List). This (along with "Block when DNS is bypassed" setting) should stop C2 (command & control) malware attacks such as the one outlined below. https://tranco-list.eu/

  v056 (which launched on 9 Aug 2026) was a big step up for stability. Current "Crash-free users" is at 99.51%; up from 84.49% 2 months ago. https://mastodon.social/@rdns/117446655999423315

  RE: https://mastodon.social/@rdns/117303649570373025 v057 is here. RPN screens sport cute Dolphins 🐬 chilling about... Speaking of RPN, we're winding down the offer on monthly plans ($2.5/mo -> $3/mo) in the coming days. Not 'cause we want more $$$ (which we do); but 'cause we can't afford it any longer. Hopefully, y'all don't encounter any major bugs. Intend to release v057 for Android TV. Not sure exactly when, but before Nov ends. Website: https://rethinkdns.co...

  @streetcoder @kuketzblog The troubling part is, these institutions can move all of that (a/b testing, personalization, push notifications etc) to the backend and we'll never know by looking at the client-side network logs. Perhaps, due to GDPR, we can expect to see these 3P providers listed as "sub processors".

  @sadmin @creaturr @lauchmelder @kuketzblog @IzzyOnDroid It won't build because we missed a commit. And the next version may or may not land too. More details: https://github.com/celzero/rethink-app/issues/2344
