Feature request - Excluded networks on macOS

I like the "excluded networks" feature on iOS a lot, let's bring it over to macOS. Even better if I could exclude it for entire LAN networks as well if that's doable 

Clicking the little 'enable' action isn't a lot of work, but it's working pretty nicely on iOS already

    I agree. I have quite an extensive deny list which gets me about 65% excluded requests on my iPhone (my main computer), but on my Linux desktop (5% exclusion, using the same profile) I need to do things sometimes which just will not work with my customise profile, particularly payment processors. My solution is to connect to a VPN service temporarily which I think takes me through NextDNS but without my own aggressive profile. Being able to switch to my NextDNS free guest network on my iPhone is incredibly useful because otherwise the App Store is blocked and periodically I need to update. Having the same facility on my Linux desktop, and my macOS desktop would be great.

    It is a lot of work if you do it daily.

    Devs, pls code this feature. If only to keep the parity between iOS and MacOS apps. It shouldn't really take a long time either as the exclusion is already built into the MacOS profile. Seems like it's only a UI work. Thanks!

     

    *Edit: Cloudflare DOH MacOS app, already has this feature.. cmon Devs, you can't let the Cloudflare beat you on it, can you?

    I don't think the current iOS app has this feature.

       – neat. But there’s nothing in settings to specify a WiFi network. What version do you have?

    Yes there is. Version 2.0.1(29)

       I don’t see it on the same version you cited. See my screenshot above.

       To exclude WiFi on the iOS app you tap the “on” toggle, then you get the option to disable for current WiFi connection or turn off.

      Are you not seeing this option?

    So weird. I don't know what to say. @NextDNS, can you help?

    I see the option now. Thanks, everyone.

    So we established that iOS app can exclude wifi but not a single response for 2 years about the main issue that is plaguing the MacOS app which is lack of this essential feature.

    Devs, can someone reply? There is obviously demand for this feature, can you help?
