[Suggestion] SOCKS5 Proxy option should remember App/Hostname/Port

[MasterKia]

Hi, this is a brief suggestion.
Let's say I go to settings and enable "Setup SOCKS5 Proxy" and select the app/port.
Then if after I'm done, I disable the "SOCKS5 Proxy" option, the next time I'd have to reselect the app/port.
Can RethinkDNS save the app and the port somewhere so that I don't have to enter it everytime?

Makes sense.

The UI around proxies is changing ... One would be able to add, save, and connect to multiple SOCKS5 proxies at once (#229).

Thank you for the explanation @ignoramous.

On that note, can RethinkDNS detect when the local SOCKS (i.g. V2RayNG) is active/enabled so that it only routes traffic through it when it's enabled?

So this way I don't have to keep toggling the SOCKS5 option in RethinkDNS when I enable/disable the local SOCKS app (V2Ray).

We do this with Orbot (#131). I don't know if V2RayNG exposes any APIs for us to detect that, but I am open to such integration with V2RayNG.

It seems to have been fixed without any update.
Maybe a bug on my side?

May be a rare quantum entanglement or cosmic rays flipping the bits...? :D

Thanks for reporting back!

Thanks for reporting back!

Thank you for creating and maintaining this awesome application.

Btw, may I ask did Mozilla explicitly tell you to choose the Apache license or was it your choice to not choose something like the GPL?

[ignoramous]

Mozilla didn't ask anything. They only provided immense help for the plans we already had. That's about it.

As for Apache License, we inherited it from Intra and chose to keep it, esp since we also happen to like what the ALicense stands for: https://www.apache.org/theapacheway/
