I couldn't find any announcement on the Proton VPN blog or Mastodon?

If only they would focus a bit more on Linux compatibility. It is very tedious to use protonvpn on headless Linux distros. Their protonvpn cli is not supported for raspbianOS.

True, the Linux app (both the old and the new one) sucks to the point, where I gave up and just put my Linux PC behind a network-wide VPN (which is set up using a Wireguard profile)

I just use the OpenVPN files on the Linux machine

Can you share your set up info? I am currently using it on my rpi on which i have a torrent client. I am using the wireguard profile which i need to connect each time using wg-quick up

It doesn't persist through system reboots and port forwarding is also very tedious on cli using natpmpc.

I have a custom x86 Router/Firewall running the BSD-based OPNSense Firewall OS. Setting up Proton VPN is pretty simple, they even have a guide: https://protonvpn.com/support/protonvpn-opnsense-wireguard/
