It would be better if we could filter and sort based on congestion and speed.

Great discussion here. I think improving connection stability and expanding server choices would really help users in regions with limited internet access. I run a small blog where I share highly compressed PC games, and many of my readers rely on VPNs like Proton to access gaming content safely and privately. A lighter mode or gaming-optimized servers could be a game-changer. Appreciate how open you are to user feedback!

Totally agree, and this is a huge problem if you have configured your home router with a VPN configuration file because if you pick wrongly the server it could be overpopulated easily because fremiums.

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
