Thanks, I am glad you like it! I couldn't find a Go API that just returns the OS "default" network interface, so struggled a bit with a correct implementation for that part.
When reading some blog posts, I found often a solution where it sends out an UDP dial to for example 8.8.8.8:53 because you can then get the network interface back from the connection it's local address. As fallback I implemented to pick the first non-loopback interface that is up.
Would be open to suggestions to do this in a better way!
