@orhun Thanks for this blog post. I'm actually using the similar to OpenVPN tool - Outline. It simply runs in Docker container, and can automatically reconnect if something went wrong. Though I didn't face with the problems you describe.

Hello! Outline looks quite good actually, I might give it a try. OpenVPN seems a bit problematic these days (as you can tell from the post :D) Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for the post. I also suggest using WireGuard. Additionally, wg-easy is a very simple way to deploy it. You can even configure it to route only specific applications through the VPN, such as 'use this VPN for only this process.' WireGuard also has kernel-level support.

FYI wg-easy is still somewhat problematic as a workaround though. Mobile carriers like Turkcell drop outgoing wireguard handshakes on well-known ports (51820) so using Discord with mobile data can be kind of annoying. Even after changing to a different port my connection is somewhat spotty, but maybe that's a wg-tunnel problem on my phone. IPSec is probably a better option but I haven't messed with that yet.
