I have recently installed this package, and I have noticed that my home ISP's IPv6 address is leaking. Is there any kind of issue with the AUR package itself, or do I need to talk to upstream/Windscribe?

Hey @Delaxy, I just switched to the GitHub URL. Hopefully it works for you now.

The totallyacdn never works for me, the github releases maybe much better

Maybe it's better to use github for updates (way faster):

@breach Hi, if I go to https://windscribe.com/download/ and select Arch there I get redirected to this CDN URL.
breach commented on 2025-02-10 12:03 (UTC)
Why is it usin a CDN for the source instead of the official app site?

If your internet has severe problems because of this package, see this thread

My experience with NetworkManager (on kde) is not so good. Windscribe gui often complains that "something is interfering" with it's network. Often it will not work correctly. Sometimes I will be unable to access local networks unless I enable Windscribe (like access to my printer). After coming back from suspend/sleep state it is also not working correctly. I have to restart the NetworkManager or windscrbe-helper services.

Hello David, it looks like this is the intended behavior when the killswitch is enabled.

NOTE: It may be necessary to enable
systemd-resolvedfor windscribe to work. It may fail silently without it.NetworkManageralso works fine according to some reports.
