I'm a linux newbie and would really appreciate some help here.

I'm on bazzite and want to install protonvpn. Ideally the official app, not flatpak, so I can use the apparantly newly added split-tunneling.
Previously i installed both protonvpn-cli and the gui version, "layered on top of rpm-ostree" as far as I understand it. And thats actually not desireable? I think i removed those.

Now i entered my distrobox, which is better for this(?), and followed these instructions: https://protonvpn.com/support/official-linux-vpn-fedora

These commands are the ones I used:
wget "https://repo.protonvpn.com/fedora-$(cat /etc/fedora-release | cut -d' ' -f 3)-stable/protonvpn-stable-release/protonvpn-stable-release-1.0.3-1.noarch.rpm"

sudo dnf install ./protonvpn-stable-release-1.0.3-1.noarch.rpm && sudo dnf check-update --refresh

sudo dnf install proton-vpn-gnome-desktop

sudo dnf install libappindicator-gtk3 gnome-shell-extension-appindicator gnome-extensions-app

(the last one is supposed to install the system tray icon)

But protonvpn is nowhere to be found. (protonvpn --version doesnt show anything.)

Any suggestions or resources that might help me?

What about similar oddities in English?
(This question is inspired by this comic by https://www.exocomics.com/193/ (link found by BunScientist@lemmy.zip)) Edit: it's to its in the title. Damn autocorrect.

I want to switch from Proton and am looking at Mailbox.org. (This is probably not exclusive to Mailbox.org.) Alias are limited with Mailbox.org, which I'm not a fan of. But extensions can be used as well. Although they don't seem as anonymous as aliases? Can someone give their perspective on this?

Mail Extensions Aliases

Frustratingly, doing a search on that Changelog page for sources is mostly full of stuff not relevant to my search.

I did find a different post on Lemmy that talks about it, though. This post is incredibly thorough, and does an excellent job of undoing Kagi's attempt to memory-hole the information about which sources they use.

This makes it all the more frustrating that Vlad refuses to re-add them, instead asking to know why we would care. Here's a link to that conversation, which is on a platform controlled by Vlad, which appears to be resistant to archiving services that attempt to fetch those particular comments. Also for posterity:

There is really no proper information about search sources. We need to know what resources are used and at what rate.

Please make a more detailed and clear edit.

[@]slamor Is there any particular reason you are asking for this? More context will help us better understand the need.

[@]Vlad why not?

Searching through kagi.com for "Yandex" yields a lot of dead links. The one living link is the Changelog, which says they added Yandex to their image search, back in December 2024... But that's hardly a revelation. The changelog doesn't go back very far either, AFAIK

As for the other links: Google says these links used to contain it the word, but I don't know why. Maybe this one was for raised sites, maybe it was for lowered sites, which would at least give a little insight into whether users loved or hated the domain...

Another result seems to suggest Yandex Images served up a photo of Steve Jobs in a demo search, but that is no longer the case. Maybe it's just a coincidence.
