Proton’s Linux app just sucks and it seems that they’ve made no effort whatsoever to fix this since last year.
This is entirely untrue. The new Linux app, fully rewritten, is currently in beta now:

Let’s not forget that these “technically-correct” but poorly-worded half-truths are what landed them in hot water back when they were forced to log and disclose a user’s IP address for law enforcement back in 2021.
Beating a dead horse, which wasn’t for VPN (VPN under swiss law cannot be compelled to log), but Mail. That is an important difference.
The Captcha problem on Brave Search is my biggest annoyance with the service right now. With the US servers I notice it seems to depend on location, and the Chicago servers, which the app often picks as the fastest for me, which is particularly frustrating.
@BrikoX @Grangle1 I stopped using Brave because of this. Switch to @librewolf
I already use Librewolf. I meant the Brave search engine, not the browser. I prefer Brave Search for search engine because I don’t want just Google/Bing in another supposedly more private wrapper (Startpage/DDG) and I am not interested in hosting my own SearX instance.
There are no perfect options but it's hard to agree with a supposedly private search engine that is actively hostile to people who are using VPNs (the same target audience!)
