The free extension is frustrating, time consuming, does not choose the same country server as the PC installation & changes your PC local time to that of the server. Tech support wants pics & all the hairy details to solve simple, common problems. With every biz wanting fee for service, the public is getting nickled & dimed to death to give a CEO gas for their Bentley!

Installation facile sur 4 appareils : Kubuntu 24.04, Debian 13, Ios 26 et Lubuntu 24.04
Bravo à l'équipe

Works great!

Really good!

Nice job

very great extension!

work very well

Works like a charm. It sometimes makes websites run a little weird but I think that's just a function of the VPN being more private than the website would like. Ex: Microsoft Copilot

v1.2.10 freezes every connection after wakeup from sleep on Windows, have to disable addon to get it working again.

Works perfectly for a few minutes, then it simply freezes, both the extension and the entire connection. You can only fix this by disabling the extension. But when you enable it again, this happens again. And the only way to restore it is to completely reinstall it, only for this to happen again a few minutes later.

Does the job, but it does it in the most basic and annoying way possible, for example you can't set up a default country (i.e. USA) and you instead have to constantly scroll down and activate your country of choice manually every time you want to use it because it resets the list position back to the beginning any time you click on anything...

This wouldn't be a problem if not for the fact that you can't invert split-tunnelling — I literally only want to use the VPN for one or two sites that I have data on that are blocked in the UK but I can't without it causing problems everywhere else — so I have to continuously Connect/Disconnect via the long-winded means I mentioned above every time I want to use those sites.

Other than that, no issues, but I won't be resubscribing as it's really too much faffing about for something that you should be able to set up as a one-click connect.

Proton's full suite of services has been great for me and I have had no issues whatsoever with Proton VPN. Sure the paid version is way better (that's what I use) but I used the free version for a while first. I can't think of many other free offerings that have a proven track record of caring about your data. If all you care about is getting around certain online Acts - proton free is perfect. For me - the paid version is exceptional.
