VPN does not work on all sites

Hello everyone, does the opera's VPN work stably on all sites? I have already collected a list of sites that I do not open through the vpn opera, did anyone have this? I so-so conveniently set up the profile and got used to the fact that I see the laptop battery and I am not ready to change the browser.

@kathleenlee Sites can block VPNs.

Yes, but it's strange that different sites simultaneously blocked this VPN, I even tried from other regions - to no avail

@kathleenlee Once a VPN is known, the chances that various sites start blocking it may increase. Or, depending on the situation, the ISP may be blocking the VPN.

@kathleenlee Depends on which sites you are referring to, but keep in mind that by default Opera turns it's "VPN" (proxy) off for search engines (even though the VPN status and icon suggest you are protected) which I think it's very misleading and a terrible practice! Make sure to toggle that off.

Thank you. Will try some VPN extensions/plug-ins.

@kathleenlee I don't know for what purpose you need such solution. If it's just to bypass some sites' geoblocking then that's fine. If you want to have a real VPN, you might consider buying a proper one.

@Lord-Blizzard the reason is very simple, I don't want the site to know where I'm coming from. I just started to notice that the VPN from the opera often does not let me on various resources and thought that maybe it only works for me, but I see the problem is large enough.

Yes, oper's Vpn is one of the best VPN I ever used. It helps me to open almost all sites which have restrictions according to country or age limit and I use it very frequently for my work. Before opers's VPN I was paying for the VPN $100s to just get open those websites. It helps me a lot and saving my money also.
