VPNMON Please VOTE for continued Proton VPN/VPNMON-R3 functionality!

[Viktor Jaep]

Do you use Proton VPN? Or planning on using it? Well, unfortunately VPNMON-R3 as of April 16 is no longer able to support Proton any longer. At this point, Proton has removed any useful public API integration that helps VPNMON-R3 download current lists of VPN servers for your city/country, and can no longer help you maintain a steady connection with this VPN provider. I would recommend discontinuing your subscription service with them as it stands if you were strictly using Proton VPN with VPNMON-R3.

UNLESS YOU VOTE FOR CHANGE!

Thanks to @iTyPsIDg, a community request has been posted to keep this functionality in place. Please use this link below. We would need a LOT of votes to get Proton to consider this. It doesn't guarantee that they will add it back, but that's a risk we'd need to take if we want to continue supporting Proton VPN. Please vote!

One for the faq:

• I have to log in, so do I have to be a Proton customer?

I used a throwaway account to vote. So it doesn't look like it.

Done, and done

ProtonVPN is probably quite popular with Gluetun users because of its port forwarding capability. So, expect more noise being made about this once Gluetun users discover this API change, since they were also relying on that API:

gluetun/internal/provider/protonvpn/updater/api.go at master · qdm12/gluetun

VPN client in a thin Docker container for multiple VPN providers, written in Go, and using OpenVPN or Wireguard, DNS over TLS, with a few proxy servers built-in. - qdm12/gluetun
