Testing different ones out and wanted to see what your success rates were
I’ve had no issues with the ProtonVPN flatpak on Fedora Silverblue.
Same I run the flatpak app on fedora workstation 42 with zero issues.
The flatpak leaks, a VPN is one of the situations were layering with rpm-ostree is appropriate
VPN even at system level will leak… Seems putting ont he router is best if you got a good enough router
I do it with a gluetun container (more versatile) zero issues, but you can just mainline wireguard as an interface if you prefer, also works fine, on bazzite.
I have bazzite running on my desktop. I use proton VPN on it. No issues. 👈😎
Same. Haven’t had any problems.
Yup, using openVPN profiles. Proton VPN has quite clear instruction on how to do this on their website. Just do a search for “proton vpn openVPN profile Linux”
Using FastVPN for 3 years now. It’s so great, I probably cost them much more than I pay and they have port forwarding…
I’ve installed it through secureblue’s ujust script. I think this has been the smoothest experience I’ve had with it on Fedora Atomic.
Previously, I relied on the wireguard profiles I downloaded from ProtonVPN and which I loaded through NetworkManager. While it definitely worked, it was a hassle to redo it every now and then. Furthermore, switching on the go to something else I hadn’t loaded already was never an experience I enjoyed doing.
Though, for completeness’ sake, ProtonVPN[1] hasn’t fixed its IP leakage on Linux. And, to my knowledge, the workaround is only available with access to the wireguard profiles. And thus, the cumbersome method actually offers a very tangible merit over the comfortable one.
Finally, while I don’t endorse the use of NordVPN, it’s the only other VPN that’s installable as a sysext. Note that systemd system extensions are still experimental, though. Even if they’ve (read: N=1) been reliable to use for me.
Note that, IIRC, IVPN and Mullvad don’t fare better in this regard. ↩︎
ProtonVPN works fine for Debian based systems, wish I could say the same for ProtonDrive.
proton drive is the biggest bummer from proton themselves. though their calendar might acually be worse - like where the fuck can i use this shit? however, rclone does kinda work with drive if you’re willing to get it setup.
Proton marketing department doesn’t understand their base along the their parasite ceo
