Ugh. I'm generally happy with roaming on #GoogleFi, but its German MVNO partner is blocking port 995, so I can't access my mail server, and tech support is like, "If you want to report a mail problem, you must initiate a chat request from that email address." I'm stuck in circles - obviously I can't login to the Google Fi app with a non-Google address, and this isn't an email problem, it's a connectivity problem. ALL outbounds on 995 are blocked, not just to my server.

I've been routing all Internet traffic through my own OpenVPN server at home for several years. On the phone I can't really say I notice much at all, it works just as well as if I was connected directly. There is an overhead, yes, but in a good setup you shouldn't really notice that much of it in real life.

This way Internet sites can't even tell that easy if or when I'm travelling; I have the same semi-static public IP address anyhow, regardless of where I am in real life.
