@qwertyuiopasdfghjklzxcvbnm Definitely Stealth protocol: https://protonvpn.com/blog/stealth-vpn-protocol/

When Stealth protocol is going to become available on anything other than phones?
People have been asking for it since late 2022: https://github.com/ProtonVPN/win-app/issues/64
To make matters worse you have removed the option to download OpenVPN configurations in bulk.
I'm in Russia, so most servers are blocked, I'm attempting to find a configuration that might still work, but I can only access the download page from my phone where Stealth works. I don't have the luxury to download them one-by-one 🤬
@m0xee Stealth for Windows is planned. We're aiming for summer and we'll share more information as we get closer to launch.

Thank you for information! Any plans to make it possible to use Stealth without any apps so I could use it on my proxy directly?
Right now I've resorted to using my phone as a VPN box, my proxy is connected to it over wireless connection and both of them are connected to a router that is in turn connected to my ISP, three devices are involved so I can just access the Internet over wired connection. Not only it's a little bit unorthodox, but it's also suboptimal to say the least.
@protonmail
Using Wireguard over a TLS channel is a neat trick, but it isn't exactly rocket surgery and it should be possible without any apps. I have found Proton's fork of wireguard-go on GitHub and it looks like code for it is there and it's what the Andoid app, I suppose, uses. However current implementation uses Android-specific bits and even if I'd be able to get around that and add an option to use TLS from command line, I'd still need additional information like ports.
@protonmail
Maybe your engineers could do part of that and offer something to those who are tech-savvy and who are okay with less user-friendly and maybe suboptimal performance-wise solution. Obviously it would be still better than this solution I'm using currently with phone acting as a VPN box.
@m0xee Thank you for the very detailed feedback, we'll pass this on to our engineers.

Different ones are probably used for Stealth than for Wireguard UDP. I suppose the app retrieves it using Proton API, but I would have to handle it myself somehow. There are also encryption keys to worry about — again, I suspect, the app takes care of that currently — so many things to figure out from reading the code.
