   Mixed feelings

   We used their DC proxies and Residential proxies. Resi proxies were having quite low success rate. We had to use resi solution from other proxy providers. Unblocker didn't work well either also it was way too expensive.

   🏁 Competitors: Smartproxy, NetNut.io

   👍 Pros:    Cheap dc proxies

   👎 Cons:    Quite expensive|Residential proxies are worse than competitiors

• Russia has started indiscriminately blocking all OpenVPN/WireGuard connections

  Outline (https://getoutline.org) is even easier to deploy than Streisand and uses Shadowsocks. - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• Set Up a Self Hosted Outline VPN with Amazon LightSail in 5 steps.

  Outline, a free and open-source VPN service developed by Google, is renowned for its user-friendly design. It can be conveniently established on diverse platforms, and this blog will specifically guide you through the process of setting up a self-hosted Outline VPN using Amazon LightSail. - Source: dev.to / 12 months ago

• How can I bypass extreme website restrictions in my university wifi?

  Another good way is to set up your own VPN server on Digitalocean or something. Use a VPN protocol that is good at escaping detection. I recommend Outline VPN (getoutline.org). It's an open-source project that uses the Shadowsocks protocol and aims to provide censorship-free Internet to journalists in certain countries. It's not a VPN service so you need to set it up on your own server. Source: 11 months ago

• Is there any way to circumvent the shitty VPN ban that we have in place other than, well, a VPN ?

  Use a self-hosted Outline on GCP or any other cloud platform, it works really well in my experience for circumventing these blocks. Source: about 1 year ago

• Shadowsocks vs. Astrill?

  Shadowsocks is a protocol. Technically not a VPN, but looks like one. Shadowsocks is a string of code that needs a server. You can get a VPS (aka server for $2/m) and install Shadowsocks. Alternately install outline, it's largely based on Shadowsocks. Works also with the Shadowsocks client, or others, like V2rayNG. Source: about 1 year ago
