That's weird, my proton is active, set to always on, I'm using secure core, no split tunneling, all brave shields are up except for JavaScript, and it works just fine. I wonder if something about graphene os helped fix this faster. Can you provide any details? I could ask a coworker or two to try to replicate the issue.

I just had a coworker show me on his android, using PIA, seems to work just fine. It does seem like a lot of people have this issue though. What's your exit point?
