The difficult setup is done for you and works in a way that allows Chinese apps to go direct and foreign apps to use the VPN so no need to disconnect and reconnect each time. If you are deadly serious about your Internet, send me a PM and I'll put you in touch with the right person. They offer trials too.
That’s the nice thing about Outline. It’s a virtual server running your own private VPN. The entire process is automated and there are apps for iOS or Android to connect.
Total cost is $5 a month. If your VPN ever gets blocked you just kill it and setup another one.
