Proton VPN has been one of the best VPNs for years, but the #Linux experience has never quite been up to par with Proton VPN on Mac, Windows, or mobile platforms. That's now changing, as Proton is releasing a feature-complete version of its desktop app for Linux PCs.
If you want to check out the new desktop app, it's officially supported on Debian, Ubuntu, and Fedora.
personally i switch from using two VPNs
ProtonVPN free version
Mullvad VPN because you aren't tied into payments you manually pay for what you want/need all at the same price no % of for 1yr/2yr subscription nonsense you pay £4 and change for 1mth < if you want a year pay for a year same prices for ALL
i have my reasons for using both - proton free version is a good service for normal internet stuff
i hate companies that try and tie you into 1-2yr subscriptions by offering deals for VPNs
@ecksmc Good news for users
@ecksmc I'm thinking of trying it after my current account lapses in another year or so, if I still need one. I've used stuff of theirs over the years here and there, and they've never offended against me that I know of. And I'm prickly.
@AskTheDevil Proton offer a good free version for the VPN also
worth trying before you commit
obvs you are limited with features using free version but it gives at least a guide as to the service and stability of the app
Proton said in its announcement,
"Proton’s mission is to offer users a better, private alternative to the products and services that dominate the internet today. To do that, the company has to offer choice and listen to user needs. By offering a fully equipped Linux Proton VPN app, Proton is helping users who want to break free from big tech and use a free operating system developed by someone other than Microsoft or Apple."
