#shell#arch#bash#discord#dpi#goodbyedpi#linux#nfqws#nftables#ubuntu#youtube#zapret
This Linux script (tested on Ubuntu 24.04 and Arch) easily sets up Zapret to bypass YouTube slowdowns and Discord blocks using Flowseal configs. Clone the repo, run `sudo bash main_script.sh` to pick a strategy (like general.bat), network interface, and save settings in conf.env for quick non-interactive launches or auto-start via `sudo bash service.sh`. It uses nftables, cleans up on stop, and skips auto-updates to stay stable. You get fast, reliable access to YouTube videos and Discord chats without hassle.
