After years of using system-wide VPNs, I made a switch to browser-only VPN extensions because I was constantly turning off my VPN for banking apps, flight check-ins, and captcha-heavy sites. Here’s why browser extensions can be a great middle-ground that offer some protection without the daily frustrations that make you disable your VPN entirely.

What I'm hearing is that Proton needs to add split-tunneling to their desktop VPN.


Comments from other communities

I don't get it, honestly.

Just do split tunneling, and exclude a secondary browser or something. Way better setup, IMO.

Plus, you don't need to search for tons for extensions, which might not be official/trusted; and it's better to have a backup browser anyway.

I mean, split tunneling is a feature most VPNs supports, so why work harder for worse setup.


I just use FoxyProxy, which lets you use wildcard/regex rules to send different sites to different proxies (or none at all).

On firefox at least, you can also manually set a specific tab to use a different proxy.



"VPN blocked? Just turn it off"

Also report the issue to your provider so they can circumnavigate the bs.
