@protonprivacy Great, #duckduckgo has already been banned in my country, so this extension would be very helpful.

This is awesome. It makes a lot more convenient to use the VPN on linux distributions that the app does not officially support.

@protonprivacy used to be free, then paid because it was a form of split tunneling, now free again. Hmm

@0xC4aE1e5 This is the first time the browser extension has been made available to free users.

@protonprivacy You should warn people that dns are leaking with the firefox version of this extension. Unfortunately, it's useful with chromium browsers only.
Firefox users should definitely use the old fashioned way to connect to your services.

@protonprivacy Thanks for your answer. I hadn't tried in a while, you must have changed something as I remember that it was leaking at the beginning. I've just re-tested it and it seems alright. That's great news as FF is my daily driver, I'm not quite fond of chromium browsers :)
THX !

Does the Mail Plus plan contain more VPN options than the free VPN? There is a discussion on Lemmy because different pages of your website say different things:

@Torjas No, Proton Mail Plus comes with access to the Proton VPN Free only. Can you please share which pages you're referring to?
Show threadTorbenAug 19, 2024

@protonprivacy This is also what is described on this page: https://proton.me/support/proton-plans#proton-mail-plus

But the Pricing Page says that it does contain more: https://proton.me/mail/pricing#compare-plans
