18:12:03 Hi guys i have a question, are we able to use a vpn while running a locale node on the monero GUI Desktop wallet 18:13:06 or that wouldn't be smart? 18:15:53 Your question is too vague to have an answer. 18:16:09 It does sound like a question for #monero too. 18:16:29 (if you ask more precisely) 18:16:29 sorry 18:17:05 If you mean running wallet and daemon locally, but use a VPN for p2p daemon connections to other nodes, it's fine. 18:17:36 I kinda confused vpn and vps in my first reading, so the vagueness was my fault :) 18:30:05 is okay and i meant like running something like OpenVpn then Running the Daemon node for the GUI wallet? im just making sure im able to run a vpn while also accessing my Monero GUI wallet 18:30:29 Yes, that's fine. 18:30:55 You probbly won't get incoming connections though (depends on your vpn). 18:31:12 That makes your connection to the p2p network a bit more brittle, but everything will still work. 18:32:21 Thank you! and yes thats what I've noticed ! but essentially it was for more privacy. so yeah i understand now 18:33:32 So no one would know im even accessing a xmr wallet
