Proton does improve their products, that's true. I'm very happy with the improvements they have been making with Proton Pass, for instance.
But they don't improve their linux products, at least not at a reasonable pace. How many years to we need to wait for WireGuard support? Or ipv6? :/
Proton supports Wireguard on Windows for several years now.
If you use the config file generator from the Proton website, you can have a Wiregard config tailor-made to load in NetworkManager for instance. Or several with or without NAT, different exits and so on.
I don't know how this isn't widely known, it's been there for a while.
I know about this but it sucks for several reasons:
This doesn't use the proton vpn client
You need to setup configuration files for each country you wish to connect
You configure a server directly, you can't just connect to "France" and have the client choose the server with the least load
You can no longer select a random country, you have to introduce the randomness yourself
You have to manage configurations like kill switches on your own, since you're no longer using the proton client
It's certainly a viable option, but why must linux users have all these drawbacks? :|
