Wait... I thought Proton was owned by Valve.

Oh well, anyone know a cheap yet reliable VPN I can switch too?

The Proton compatibility layer is a valve thing. Proton Mail/VPN/Pass and so on are from the Proton company.

A bit of an unfortunate name.

Azire is great, they just dont have port forwarding. For that reason I use airvpn witch is okay too.

[edit] whoa, just noticed they got bought by malwarebytes. There goes that recommendation.
