hackernews has some good discussions and the source is right there. I see it as a bonus, if it was reddit I would feel differently.

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?

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.

A lot of the top VPNs on here as well as less known VPNs seem to have much less connections.

(protonVPN, Mullvad, and PrivateVPN for example).

Cool site! Though it isn’t too good on mobile because it forces the map into a window 1/4 od the screen size 😅
