Feature request: Please add a Flathub package

Proton VPN also managed to publish a Flathub package:

• https://flathub.org/en/apps/com.protonvpn.www
• https://github.com/flathub/com.protonvpn.www

There is no official Proton VPN Flatpak. The one you linked is an unofficial community package, which is missing certain features such as split tunneling due to limitations with Flatpak's sandbox.

I would also love to see an IVPN Flatpak, but i must admit it might not be a good packaging format for a VPN app.

I understand.

But I just think that a flatoak with a bit fewer features is better than nothing.
This is very useful for atomic destributions like Bluefin linux, which only offer flatpaks..

I would also add that while it is possible to install IVPN using rpm-ostree on Fedora Atomic and derivatives (although Bluefin disables layering by default), it is not an option on:

• Aeon Desktop - Has transactional-update as an alternative to rpm-ostree, but IVPN is not packaged.
• GNOME OS - BuildStream-based.
• KDE Linux - Arch Linux-based with plans to migrate to BuildStream.
• Kalpa Desktop - Has transactional-update, the same as Aeon Desktop.
• SteamOS - Arch-Linux based.

So having a Flatpak/Flathub package might be an opportunity to support all these distributions, as well as other unique ones.
