I've used Potato on iOS for quite some time, and don't know how I lived without it (as SS is the only VPN protocol that works reliably where I live). At the time, I thought it was the only SS client using the Network Extension API, but I think there's another one.

The original Potatso included some GPL code, and the author proactively and kindly made the repo available on GitHub (instead of only responding to source code requests). This resulted in at least one 'developer' releasing their own version under a different name, at a lower price. So the original developer pulled the repo and created Potatso 2.

I bought Potatso 2, but have yet to use it. A few questions:

- is there any performance or stability reason to switch to Potatso 2?

- does Potatso 2 contain any GPL code? If so, is the source code available somewhere?

Thanks again for creating this.

Wow!!! Your words has lighten up my whole day!!! Thanks for your encouragement.

I would recommend using Potatso 2 instead of Potatso 1 cause it's much more stable and under heavy maintenance.

Potatso 2 doesn't contain any GPL code (that's why it's 2)

I just bought Potatso 2! Nice UI.

It's funny because I was just using mitmproxy this morning to audit/inspect some iOS apps I use. Password managers etc. Looks like I can do this all on the iPhone now! I can see that Potatso itself is connecting to api.potatso.com and potatso.helpshift.com ...I created rules to REJECT them :P

[icodesign]

api.potatso.com is for fetching and updating cloudsets and maybe more features in the future (I think you won't want to REJECT them).

potatso.helpshift.com is for feedback. If you don't use feedback feature, you can disable it.
