Usage of an always on vpn has become essential for me, since my country is blocking even mail.proton.me now, but I have found that discord blocks proton vpn connections what I am wondering is if this is also the case for the paid servers. My other option is to somehow exclude discord from vpn which I have read is complicated especially on linux. My country has long crossed to line and I don’t wanna connect to the internet without a vpn at all anymore.

    Fwiw I’m always using Proton VPN (paid version) on my phone (Android) and frequently on desktop as well (both Windows and Linux).

    I use Discord on all these platforms, and I’ve never had trouble using it while connected to a server via Proton.

      I just quickly checked on my phone and didn’t have Discord issues while connected to a Netherlands server.

        Are you using the paid version? OP’s thinking about paying, but if Discord works on the free Netherlands server, perhaps one of us should let them know.
