The hardest problem in replacing Epic/Opera privacy browsers is the VPN.
It has to be a no-registration VPN extension to replace what they did.
First I tried Hide.ME VPN and that worked for a while but became flaky.
Then, I tried Urban VPN, which, interestingly, did the same thing.
Both worked fine - and then - after a day or two - they became flaky.
So now I'm trying Browsec VPN - which is working fine all day (so far).
Just in case, I've archived unpacked files for the following free ad free
no-registration chromium-based browser VPNs (most work for Mozilla too).
C:\> for /d %i in (*) do @for /d %j in ("%i\*") do @echo %j

1vpn\akcocjjpkmlniicdeemdceeajlmoabhg
browsec\omghfjlpggmjjaagoclmmobgdodcjboh
setupvpn\oofgbpoabipfcfjapgnbbjjaenockbdp
Note that hotspotshiled, itovpn and protonvpn failed miserably.
Windscribe VPN will only be used if nothing else works (not likely).
Caveat: I've used system-wide free public VPN for so many years I can't
count, and I used Opera/Epic VPN (actually) proxy for as many years too.
But this is my first time using these free VPN extensions, which are flaky.
As always, if you know more than I do about building a DIY privacy web
browser, please add value so that every post extends our tribal knowledge.
