A lot of people use EVPN, they should know:

Proton responded to the Tesonet thing when that was a big issue, can't remember what was said but I was satisfied enough with their response to continue using them

Update: Thanks to @JoyfulCodingGuy@lemmy.ml below for clearing up the Proton confusion. I'm glad they can still be trusted.
Original message: Proton being out is devastating. Why does everything go to shit?
Greed.
Follow me for more obvious answers.
Lmao yep of course. It just sucks that we can't ever have anything nice.
Like another person said they resolved to that here: https://www.reddit.com/r/ProtonVPN/comments/8ww4h2/protonvpn_and_tesonet/
I guess you decide if you like the response or not but that was a long time ago as well. 🙂
That's actually very interesting and reassuring. Thank you very much indeed for the insight–I can continue to use Proton in peace.
