ProtonVPN has "Stream films, sports events, and videos on any streaming service (Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime Video, Disney+, BBC iplayer etc)" in its description.
Torrhunt and Orion Torrent Client, both have the tag "netflix torrent".
MullvadVPN wouldnt work because they do really privileged stuff to hook in your connection, block it on early boot etc. Your device is pretty much airgapped.
Note: Limited features after 30 days of evaluation period
It's also closed source, and the developer has like 30 of the most generic trash apps on the snapstore: https://snapcraft.io/publisher/keshavnrj. My advice would be to stay away from this. Looks shady as hell.
I guess the playstorification of flathub and the snapstore has begun.

TIL there is a tag "netflix torrent" which is a hillarious word
Daxtron2@startrek.website · 10 pts · 2y
Its just two separate words

It's also one of the few privacy-respecting VPNs that allow port forwarding

What's the benefit to that, if I've got it running workout that manually set and it works great?

In this case it's useful to torrent Linux ISOs without leaking your IP

Somewhere in the description or reviews mentions netflix probably

It's a shame that Proton VPN has no official flatpak. The Arch Linux AUR package's been broken for a long while now.
boredsquirrel@slrpnk.net · 8 pts · 2y
Its crazy that they have a Flatpak though.
MullvadVPN wouldnt work because they do really privileged stuff to hook in your connection, block it on early boot etc. Your device is pretty much airgapped.
A flatpak cant do that.
Tyoda@lemm.ee · 7 pts · 2y
Yeah. The protonvpn-gtk-app (or something like that) AUR package works fine, though. Really barebones but does the job.
AkatsukiLevi@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y
I'd take a barebones but functional app over a one-bazillion-features but buggy and broken app any day of the week

Will check that out

What? It work for me flawlessly.
unknowing8343@discuss.tchncs.de · 1 pts · 2y
Doesn't exist anymore in the AUR
Voltage@sh.itjust.works · 3 pts · 2y
it works perfectly well for me. im even posting this reply connected to protonvpn from AUR [garuda-linux]
unknowing8343@discuss.tchncs.de · 1 pts · 2y
It doesn't even exist anymore, you are probably using something old.

Aint the official one

Except, it is.. Click on upstream link and first you see on the readme on github is this: copyright (c) 2023 Proton AG
Jakeroxs@sh.itjust.works · 1 pts · 2y
Isn't that the majority of AUR?
unknowing8343@discuss.tchncs.de · 2 pts · 2y
Not really, most of the AUR points to the official source. And in this particular case, the actual Proton team was actually managing the AUR package.
Jakeroxs@sh.itjust.works · 1 pts · 2y
Neat, I've been using endevourOS as a secondary distro on my laptop (it's the only OS installed) for a few months now so I'm still learning lol.
Petter1@lemm.ee · 1 pts · 2y
Exactly like this package. There is always a upstream link, this is it for proton: https://github.com/ProtonVPN/proton-vpn-gtk-app
Molten_Moron@lemmings.world · 2 pts · 2y
Agreed, but I am glad they at least have the option to set it up through WireGuard.

Odd that stremio is not on that list. It's superior to netflix
boredsquirrel@slrpnk.net · 4 pts · 2y
And qBittorrent

They know their priorities.
