Share your configuration

sudo docker run --rm -v ./data:/gluetun qmcgaw/gluetun update -enduser -providers surfshark

fails, but adding -minratio 0.2 made it work. (-minratio 0.5 was still too much.)

As far as I can tell, surfshark worked for me both before and after the update using:

VPN_SERVICE_PROVIDER=surfshark and SERVER_HOSTNAMES=ch-zur.prod.surfshark.com.

I'm running it from Switzerland.

Servers updated in 49b8f8b443bcf57285170a9773f6e121ace2d9b3 Indeed, they just have less servers working I think. I also removed 4 outdated old-hardcoded-servers in ce75c5ca217dc1950be1c47096ff55848f190768
