>log in to commentBibaVPN creates a DPI‑resistant SOCKS5/HTTP tunnel over TLS + WebSocket for self‑hosted single‑VPS setups. I built it to provide a lightweight, censorship‑circumventing tunnel that runs on a single VPS without extra infrastructure. Let me know what works well and what could be improved 😊
- DPI‑resistant SOCKS5/HTTP tunnel over TLS+WebSocket
- Self‑hosted single‑VPS setup
- Implemented in Rust
- Supports both client and server binaries
- Can be launched via --proxy-server flag
- Available as AUR package for Arch Linux
