In a few months I need to go in an authoritarian country for work and I need a VPN. Last time (2018) the only one it worked reliably was outline based on a self hosted VM.

But went back to see and it looks like abandoned. Link rot in home page if I select my language, no docker install in 2023 and the fact that was developed by Google is a big negative sign (not because of privacy issues, but because they get bored with their project, they abandon them and start an identical but incompatible one)

There are better alternatives in 2023? I need to have as most chances to connect to the uncensored internet as otherwise I can’t work and my 2 weeks work trip becomes a 2 weeks vacation where I can’t even check my email or work chat

    The tech behind Outline Shadowsocks is solid. It establishes a private tunnel to your server in the free world and attempts to obfuscate the traffic as much as possible. The project is not really abandoned. There are still continuous development/maintenance activities in the repo.
