A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Combining multiple network links into a single usable link is something the industry is very slowly moving towards.

Multipath TCP is already a thing and is used extensively by iPhones at least for Apple framework services.

If you have multiple network connections, you want to use a multi-path VPN to bond them together to allow you to aggregate bandwidth or reduce total latency or reduce packet loss.

As somebody else mentioned speedify is a commercial multi-path VPN service you can use today on any device.

You could also build your own if you're so inclined, but wire guard does not have multi-path built in you have to bod something together. There is a patch for open VPN for multiPath, but it is not in the upstream
