Yo ho me hearties,

I was reading through Servarr wiki’s VPN Guide and saw this callout:

For most users, secure DNS is sufficient instead of VPNs and fixes indexer connectivity issues without the complexity and problems of VPN setups

Are VPNs no longer the recommended practice? I was under the impression a VPN was pretty much required for sharing stuff in a copyright-sensitive country. I’d be delighted if I could simplify my app stack.

    Maybe for troubleshooting? Like they say for Gluetun part, and Prowlarr indexers needing more configurations. I think it’s recommended to use a vpn in most countries.
