I’m looking for a VPN to replace my old one since moving to arch; so this VPN must be available on Flatpak or Arch linux. any reccs?
Mullvad! They also allow to pay in cash which is really cool
And Monero!
Mullvad from the AUR, it’s great.
Proton VPN has Arch installers for their client but they also gives you the option to connect via OpenVPN so that you can use whatever client you want.
I like Proton VPN. If you’re on Arch you can download and build their client from the AUR, or by using Pacman. I just use their client, but if you prefer you can also connect via OpenVPN and use something else.
I also use Proton VPN as well as Proton mail, Calendar and drive (proton cloud storage). I am also on arch and quite satisfied with Proton.
PIA for Linux. You download a
.run
file and install it. It also install a CLI commandpiactl
if you are into scripting. You can use either a Wireguard or OpenVPN connection. You can also do port forwarding.“Mullvad” with “NextDNS” is my fav combination now. For connecting to my personal servers and network at home, I use WireGuard.
I’m miffed that mullvad did away with recurring subscriptions, so you have to remember to refill the account if you have stuff relying on it.
Yes that’s correct… I don’t really have anything relying on my connections 24/7 so that’s not an issue for me personally.
Mullvad is the best option.
It’s cheap, they respect your privacy, and it should already be in the AUR if you are on any Arch based distro.
I use Mullvad and have never had a problem… but they have just stopped allowing port forwarding if that matters to you
With the exception of limiting how many Wireguard configs you can have, only 5.
AirVPN has a number of Linux options running through openVPN or wireguard https://airvpn.org/linux/
Torguard has by far the most feature-packed client for Linux that I’ve tried. It can kill applications when the VPN disconnects, and you can define scripts you want to run before, during, or after a VPN connection is established.
Why not just use the native OpenVPN or Wireguard client? Most VPN providers support both protocols.
Since you insist on a Flatpak, ProtonVPN has a Flatpak client
Some flavor of Wireguard.
just use nmcli to import your vpn profiles either openvpn or wireguard
OP is asking for a service recommendation, not a protocol
I’ve reliably used Torguard for at least 15 years. They have clients for many Linux distros, including Arch.
Airvpn and mullvad according to my experience have served me pretty well. Mullvad seems to have disabled something related port forwarding recently. I’ve been using airvpn, and if u don’t mind its slightly old school interface, its the best option(and its pretty cheap as well).
