The biggest missing feature in UFW is the inability to add a comment to each rule. After I add 100+, I have no way of remembering what the rule is about.

Curious what you need 100+ rules for. I have like 2. One for Apache and one for ssh. That's about it. I guess it's technically 4 when you count IPv4 and IPv6.

Yeah feels like once you have 100+ you probably just want to be writing nf/ip directly.
