This has been happening since last year

Did you start using

Running Services:

• hostwatch

At the same moment perhaps ?

There have been a lot of strange issues with it since it was introduced !!

Tbh, I don't know about it. I thought that if every service running, it should be fine. Since you mentioned hostwatch service have a lot of strange issue, should I disable it?

Also, a bit update from my end. My RAM usage looks stable (within 25-35%), but it starts eating disk space little by little. Previously, it was 3.6GB and now it's already 4.6GB from the total of 32GB (12+ hours since I disabled the Temp RAM and SWAP settings). Should I be concerned about this?

I lost interest in most error messages during updates.
They appear so often that I now ignore them

Of all the updates that I have done from OPNsense 24 to 25 to 26 and everything in between there were ZERO ERRORS so my guess is you guys are having strange connection or DNS issues :)

Development and Code Review / Re: [ANDROID APP] OPNsense Mob...

Last post by nero355 - Today at 08:16:30 PM

I've been building an unofficial Android app for OPNsense.

A couple of questions that I always have for this kind of stuff :

- Why build an app while a browser is all you need ?!
- Why build an app for Android and not for UBPorts Ubuntu Touch and Jolla SailFish instead while you are at it anyway ??
Considering the fact that a lot of people use OPNsense as one of the tools to control their privacy online it makes a lot more sense IMHO :)

I'm asking because my modified views get very often lost. I can't determine a pattern.

TIP :

Use a seperate Profile for your browser for all your OPNsense activities and perhaps also other Network/Server stuff that you need to do from time to time.

Mozilla based browsers use something like this :

Windows :
firefox.exe -P <YourProfielNameHere>
librefox.exe -P <YourProfielNameHere>
Linux/*BSD :
firefox -P <YourProfileNameHere>
librefox -P <YourProfileNameHere>

For the shortcut that starts the browser.

You can create the Profiles by starting the browser without the <YourProfileNameHere> part and after a few clicks you will have a new one by using the menu that appears :)

Well, to be honest - and this is not really a good idea - I lost interest in most error messages during updates. They appear so often that I now ignore them - and wait 5 minutes if the remote machine, 250km away, comes back to life anyway.

It's not a cookie, it's localStorage.

They're stored in your browser storage.

Thanks. Do you now how? As a cookie?
I'm not familiar with the possible methods to save such settings. But I would like to understand what's deleting them from my client.
