Somewhere in the settings or connection page, please provide a way for paid subscribers to exclude connecting to FREE servers when not selecting a specific server.

For those exploring region-specific features or needing access to global content, using a reliable streaming app can help. Here’s a great option with modded features for broader access:

That's a solid suggestion — giving subscribers more control over server connections would definitely improve performance and reliability. Features like this are especially important for businesses that rely on stable tools for managing remote teams.
At https://bizgrowthhub.blog/, we recently discussed how using the right remote employee management software — with optimized settings and enterprise-level features — can make a huge difference in team productivity and data security.
Smart customization options like excluding free servers might seem small, but they add up when you're managing a distributed workforce.

This is an excellent idea. As a subscriber, it would be really beneficial to be able to filter out free servers and focus solely on premium ones for optimal performance. I've provided some opinions about VPN tools and technology on my website: https://blackholeapk.su/. I hope this is taken into consideration.

This feature could be more broad to exclude free servers, certain countries, certain states (US), and certain cities.

Hi. Is this a thing?
Why would a paid subscriber ever want be downgraded to a overloaded free server anyway?FYI: ProtonVPN has recently also started reducing the few country choices previously available to free accounts - Now an algorithm decides where you connect to - supposedly to more efficiently "load shed" on these "overloaded" servers. (Against the opinion of those customers)
If the suggestion on this page was adopted - not pushing paid VPN accounts onto the free servers, then bot-driven "load sharing" also wouldn't be neccesary for free acounts.
And primium paid servers would be exclusively for paid accounts.
Everyone wins.
C'mon Proton - reverse your bad decision on free servers - and add the button suggested here
