Open orgserj opened 2 years ago

orgserj commented 2 years ago

Make support Windscribe who without a pro subscription

qdm12 commented 2 years ago

Can you add some context please? How is it different?

AlyoshaVasilieva commented 2 years ago

Windscribe non-Pro is apparently a free service. But they state that a Pro account is required to use the config generator instead of their app

To use the OpenVPN configuration in Windscribe, you need a PRO subscription, in the free version they only give a cli application for linux

Would https://github.com/Windscribe/Desktop-App be compatible with the free tier? Let me know and I can dig into it. Under the hood I would bet they just use Wireguard or Openvpn and didn't implement their own vpn protocol, so I might be able to plug it in Gluetun too.

Yes, the desktop is compatible with the free tier. It would be amazing if you could get it to work somehow

This would be a valuable addition for those on the free tier. Thanks for looking at it.
