Hi everyone,
Thanks to your ongoing support, we are excited to share that Proton VPN has expanded its network to over 5,500+ servers spanning across six continents, establishing Proton VPN as one of the most popular (and fastest) VPNs out there: https://protonvpn.com/blog/5000-servers
As always, we remain committed to making online privacy the default for everyone.

Antarctica server when? lol
5,500+ servers and not one of them is Scotland.
I wasn’t sure is there is a place where users can suggest ideas to help improve ProtonVPN so I’ll just add them here. Please consider the suggestions.
2. Improved visibility into server usage and capacity in the Windows 10/11 app.
3. More robust load balancing, especially when choosing the fastest available server. There are times when servers reach over 76% capacity, and the service does not automatically switch paid users to a less congested server.
4. The option to customize load balancing settings, such as specifying a capacity threshold (e.g. switch to a less busy server of the same country if capacity reaches X%).
The VPN speed test benchmarking graph is interesting. They don’t mention the brands that they are comparing themselves to, but we can probably guess from the colours. Out of the 5 it looks like only 3 are really in the race, with Proton being the fastest in Asia, pretty much tied for first with “Green” in Europe, a close second to “Blue” for Australia and second place against “Green” for the USA. “Yellow” is a passable 4th place in Europe, but as bad as “Red” everywhere else.
Oh and my server growth graph was prettier.
I just bought a subscription to your vpn, very impressed overall, when i choose a server close to me geographically I have almost the same speeds as if I had no vpn running, i’ll regularly see 750-850 megabits per second over protonvpn which is quite impressive. If i choose a server on other side of the world I’ll still get 250-500 megabits per second download
Do you own all of them or rent them?
Does anyone know the numbers on Mullvad?
all hail to proton! Press F for respect! F
Still waiting for 3rd party DoH(/3), DoT and IPv6 support.
Is stealth protocol for windows coming in the next update I hope?
Unfortunately, Proton VPN gets detected by some websites as VPN and does not allow access.
I can give examples.
crystalbet.com is a Georgian gambling website that only works if you access it from Georgia.
With Proton VPN if you change your country to Georgia, you still do not get access to it.
I have gotten access to it with Proton VPN once or twice but that’s only 2/50 attempts that worked.
5500+ servers and still crappy Linux support
I just wished the “connection algorithm” prioritizes “Location/Country” vs “Speed”. I’m trying out (Free) ProtonVPN now and most of the time the initial connection goes to anywhere but USA. I have to try several times to get to a (free) US server. Currently have NordVPN (Paid of course) and not seeing ProtonVPN any better, other than it’s Free.
5500 servers and can’t stream RTE Ireland main broadcaster!!!
And still no appleTV app.
They can take your VPN, but they can’t take your freeeedom!
Thank you for the feedback, we’ve passed it on to our team internally!
Mullvad have Glasgow
Yes, that is strange…
