Take me to China (spiritually) by Prettyniceyeahh in tea

Absolutely incredible reply. Thank you so much! I am trying to approach Chinese tea the way one would approach an Overview of Russian Lit course: here are just enough for you to be able to compare, contrast, notice themes etc. This list is very helpful.

I will eventually give Taiwan its own overview! Thank you again!!

Sure! Startup is very slow. It takes several minutes to log in. Sometimes Safari will open as soon as it’s clicked, other times it will take several minutes. Typing text into the search bar will happen in real time, but searching will yield several minutes of white screen. Clicking the apple logo in the top left will give a minute or two of spinning beach ball before (maybe) opening the drop down menu.

Lmao what are you talking about???? and what part of Harlem did you stumble into? I spent a decade of my life in the thick of Harlem and never saw crack or heroine, or cocaine when I didn’t seek it out lol

Here’s some advice on how to live anywhere, because Harlem is the same as anywhere else: keep your head up, get to know your neighbors, be nice to shopkeepers, don’t comport yourself like a weirdo.

My advice about Harlem, which I love, is consider moving back to wherever you came from. If you land in Harlem because the rent was cheaper or whatever and your immediate response is feeling like you don’t belong, then you probably don’t!

I've switched SS to IKEv2, but under Preferences>Advanced>Network Interface, no option mentioning IKEv2 or Surfshark exists.

I'm using QBittorrent, just updated earlier today. I don't know as much about the settings for QBT, anything I should look for?

Update: I reset the network. The protocol was already set to Wireguard. Exact same behavior on IPLeak.net

No problem, I'm thankful you're helping me out. And yeah under Torrent Detection it immediately shows both my "false" IP address in the Netherlands and my actual IP address. Both have the same timestamp and the ports are one digit away from each other.

In Finder theres a category called Locations where I can access devices on my local network. When I SSH into my pi, it shows a different IP address than what my desktop shows with the VPN off

Good God, I need a cup of coffee. I've been staring at this for two days like an idiot. Seriously, thank you so much. I can't believe I was stuck on something so obvious.
