    So there’s a few things you can do. As other have mentioned tc is a good one. Systemd provides ways of limiting just about everything and even firewalling just by adding the stuff into a unit or scope. Bubblewrap, what flatpaks use, can also provide some sandboxing. There’s also OpenSnitch. The closest to netlimiter overall would portmaster.

    It just really depends on you your needs and what you’re running though.
