Adding a simple toggle to enable auto connect to fastest p2p/stream servers only

Please complete the following checklist (by adding [x]):

  • [x] I have searched open and closed issues for duplicates
  • [ ] This isn't a feature request
  • [x] This is not a report about my app not working as expected

I'm sorry if this bothers you that this issue is a feature request (or if the feature was already discussed here), but I feel this is the only way i can get heard!

the V4 linux app is incomplete.

With the V3 app, i could:

~~use an autostart bash script that connects me to the fastest p2p server~~ quick connect to the fastest p2p server ~~enable a permanent killswitch~~

If you can at least add a p2p/stream toggle for auto connect, v4 will officially be a full fledged replacement for v3 when this is done.

Hey @XxTriviumxX , yes the v4 is incomplete and our goal is to bring it in-par to other platforms. We'll be working on the UI once our app matures enough, until we've be bringing in new feature, though not sure we'll be able to bring in this one. We do have auto-connect on app start so you could just call the app that way and once it starts it will auto-connect you, but there is not automatic way to do it atm. It's something that w're definitely planning in doing but no timeline atm 👍🏻

Also worth noting is that the permanent kill switch has recently been added! It's called advanced kill switch, and can be found in settings
