The new Proton VPN Linux app is officially out of beta! - eviltoast

[ From reddit announcement ]

Today, we’re excited to announce that the new Proton VPN Linux app is now officially available for everyone.

With the new Linux application, you get a host of features:

  • Protocols: OpenVPN-UDP and OpenVPN-TCP
  • VPN Accelerator
  • Moderate NAT
  • NetShield Ad-blocker
  • Kill switch
  • Port forwarding
  • Auto connect at app startup
  • Pin servers to tray

Secure Core support will be added in the coming months as well. And though WireGuard is not yet supported, we’ve implemented OpenVPN DCO on our servers, which gives you identical results in terms of performance.

Find more information on how to install it in our KB article here.

For those of you wondering, in the coming months, we’ll be working on a new Linux CLI based on your feedback.

    Short answer based on my recent foray into Linux: depends on the fork! Some keep more parallel, some break off into their own world and are unrecognizable next to their base distro.
