These firewall tools are interesting, but I honestly haven’t needed them in years. The premise is a little out of date. Who puts cloud servers on the open internet these days? Everything I see uses a public load balancer and a WAF service.

OpenSnitch is a nice for the desktop environment, deny by default and prompts the user when an application requests a open port, at first the prompts can get a little overwhelming given how many things want to connect to xyz server but eventually lightens up.
