Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
ShareX works when connected to wifi or when using system hotspot. One limitation however is system hotspot may not be available in all circumstances.

For example samsung s23+ will not allow you to enable the hotspot if your on airplane mode (typical while traveling), or if your carrier doesn't support tethering.

To work around this I use a third party tethering app Tether fi to allow for hotspot creation in conditions where system hotspot is unavailable. Problem is ShareX prevents activation of the web server when a 3rd party tethering app is active

"Make sure your hotspot is open or wifi is connected"
