What is the purpose of the VPN location option if they’re only Ukraine and the Netherlands?

I used the VPN to help someone watch US netflix from a different country, it worked for some days but then completely randomly just stopped working and started putting her in the Netherlands, I downloaded it myself and it only puts me in Ukraine or Russia, I checked the opera forums and saw a moderator say “We are working on a fix” that was 2 years ago.

Is there anything I can do to make it work again? Why did it work for a while and randomly stop working?

Not too sure if it’s the same for everyone but I’m able to switch my VPN on to the “Optimal Location” setting and it places me in Singapore. I’m also able to select North America, Europe and Asia from the drop down menu. Have you tried changing the location from that setting? It may be different “Optimal Locations” for different regions of the world.

it’s free. the fact that you’re even getting one is huge.

I have way more options than that. What country are you in?

I just see those but no matter which one I pick I’m always in Ukraine

It’s not worth getting one if the options don’t work
