I've been a long time Litte Snitch user. However, these days I'm just using LuLu: https://objective-see.org/products/lulu.html

Why did you switch? Price? OSS? Or does LuLu have compelling features?

  • It's a mix of everything (in no particular order):

    - the author of LuLu is a security researcher; he also wrote "The Art of Mac Malware"

    - I already bought two versions of Little Snitch and wasn't willing to pay for the third one

    - contacting their support left a bitter aftertaste

      I have probably also paid for three versions. It’s a great piece of software and they do not require upgrades excessively.

      But I will try LuLu. I would rather my security software was OSS.
