Hey! Ive just got Fedora 39 on my PC. I’m new into Linux, but I liked the way Fedora looks and so on. But as a former windows user, I was glad to use Proton VPN. On windows it just worked well, and my local Broadcaster homepage didn’t notice that I was using, Secure Core, via example Switzerland though a server in my country. But now, when I use Proton VPN in fedora, the broadcaster notice that my internet goes via another country, and dosnt let me whatch. I juse the App I found on Flatpak. Is there something I should investigate more , of some easy tweaks to make it work well again?

    Seconding to use the protonvpn CLI program, it always worked well for me. These days I just use wireguard config files though, they’re much easier as you can just add them to networkmanager and you’ll auto connect on boot. IME the official VPN programs are often buggy. I also added a module to my waybar to show if I’m connected or not for peace of mind that the vpn started up correctly without any other indicator (if you use a DE you might already have an indicator for vpn connections)
