I use Proton. But I continue to run into more and more websites and services that detect my VPN and refuse my connection, or just run literally 40 captchas in a row until I just give up.

I use Proton because it has a “suite” of products under a single subscription, but that benefit is losing it’s allure as some of their products are pretty shitty from a user experience perspective, their customer support is atrocious, and they don’t seem to pay any attention to what their users actually want.

Does anyone track known VPN servers? Is there a specific provider that causes less problems? Does anyone test different VPNs for detection?

Thinking about cancelling my subscription and moving to Mullvad.

    I would avoid trying to make sure you use the “official instance” as it kind of works against the projects purpose of decentralizing web requests.

    I would but I didn’t know where to find them.

    you can find active instances here on the uptime monitor

    Thanks

    stealth should work just fine if u turn on webscraping mode

    Nope

    Geddit also doesn’t do anything but a constant loading indicator.
