Russia has started indiscriminately blocking all OpenVPN/WireGuard connections
Unfortunately, that's to the Great Firewall of China, there has been a lot of resources put in to fingerprint VPNs and block them by state actors.
Fortunately, however, there is equally years of some of the smartest minds on the planet working to bypass Chinese censorship, so there are some great OpenVPN alternatives.
I really encourage you to look into something like Shadowsocks which Chinese people have found great success in using over the last several years.
It's quite sad that projects like Streisand[0] were archived, but I'm sure there are other alternatives that might make it just as easy to roll onto a server.

Ask HN: 2023 Alternative to the Streisand Project
The Streisand Project[0] provided easy installation of well-configured certs, VPNs and various other software on cloud instances. It was great for travelling internationally: run the script and after a few minutes one had a cloud instance and everything one needed to securely access the Internet through one’s own country.
Unfortunately, it was archived in 2021. Is there anything in 2023 which approaches it? I’ve seen Algo[1], but I don’t believe it does as much to help one to avoid packet filtering. It’s also based on Ubuntu rather than Debian, which seems like a mistake with security-conscious server software.

I don’t want my landlord to see my website activities, any VPN recommendations? What do you think of VPN providers such as Nord, Express VPN? Is it safe to use free VPN such as Hola? I need a VPN that will not slow down my Internet speed (100M) and safe as well.
You are better off renting a cloud server and rolling your own, e.g. using Streisand, Algo or my own Edgewalker

Full WireGuard Support in ProtonVPN for Android
> last month that I was made aware that the project has been discontinued (Why??)
It looks like the main contributor is (or was very recently) a Signal developer [1], but they have not committed to Streisand since 2018 [2].

Self hosted ubuntu linux OpenVPN alternative?
If they allow you to install software on the laptop I'd probably go for something like Streisand on your server if you don't feel up to just installing the bare stuff yourself. Having said that, it's not too hard to just install OpenVPN etc. manually. Streisand would mean you're covered with various protocols though even though it's overkill.
