How to install ProtonVPN in Arch Linux (CachyOS) ?

Should I follow https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/ProtonVPN ?

OR

from flathub https://flathub.org/apps/com.protonvpn.www ?

This flatpak has Unverified tag, but according to this, this flatpak is safe.

Which one should I follow ?

Asking this because I’m because I’m a bit lazy to configure OpenVPN and all that stuff. (pls don’t kill me :)

Also do you think using VPN from flatpak is a good idea?

    You mean you downloaded all the OpenVPN profiles by Proton and imported it to settings?

        I guess by doing this way we can’t tell which server has less load just by looking it, right?

          Yeah and, for example, I believe the ios app switches to less busy servers automatically by default.

          It’s got its downsides but I’m willing to live with this cuz im a bit paranoid and don’t wanna use non-official flatpaks 😂

            Makes sense, especially for something as important as VPN.

            Thank you.
