I'm just now getting into VPN usage and I'm surprised how not straight forward it is.
So I paid NordVPN and downloaded these ovpn files and set my network manager to use these but to my surprise, IPv6 leaks my real location/country even if I disable IPv6 in the network manager for both the wired and the vpn connection? How can it be that easy to screw up VPN usage in 2025?
