I like to control the network bandwidth of each process/app on my linux, both ways (download, and upload), as well as my pc overall bandwidth. is that achievable on Linux ? Thanks

    The kernel’s queuing disciplines (qdisc) can do this per interface. The tc command can manage them at a low level, but it’s a bit arcane, so you would probably want a higher-level tool like Wonder Shaper.

        You’re welcome.

        By the way, copying your question to every community you can think of at the same time ends up looking pretty spammy to those of us who are members of more than one. If you must make many cross-posts, you might want to space them out a day or so, at least. You might even find that there’s enough membership overlap that you don’t need to cross-post much.

          i know it sucked, maybe i should have acted that way. in fact 1 day ago i posted complaining why there are duplicate communities everywhere, i was downvoted to oblivion, but after self-reflection, this should be a feature of the fediverse. afterall my posts are crossposted with few seconds in intervall, so one could scroll throu them quite quickly, its not like a bot spamming posts but i get ur feel. remark noted 👈
