There are apparently OpenVPN profile you can import, but as I said in my earlier comment - I just couldn’t get it to work (connection attempts would just time out).

I still have like ~18 months of PIA left (joined under a 100% cashback offer), but will likely switch to Proton or Mullvad afterwards - as they both seem to work better under Linux from what I’ve read.

I’m sure over time I’ll tinker more under the hood over time, but for now - I’m just trying to ease myself into Linux with pre-configured installers when particular apps aren’t available through the Cachy Package Manager.

30-odd years of Windows usage has dulled my IT skills!

Sample size of 1, here.

Bazzite was my initial entry-point into Linux, but I bounced off it within 48 hours as its immutable nature made it impossible for me to install the native PIA VPN client and for the life of me I couldn’t get the OpenVPN to play nice.

Currently on CachyOS, and seems to run just fine - giving an end user just enough rope 😅

Plus it’s Arch underneath the hood too, so I can still cheekily say that I run Arch!

ETA: I wonder if/how long I would count as part of this Bazzite cohort?

Russia might have him by the balls, but word on the street is that Bill Clinton has a fair bit in on him too.
