Title says it all. I'll go first:

I don't really have any on my computer (all I use that for is Vim, Firefox, and Git), but on my phone: Orbot (basically Tor as a VPN on your phone).

Out of curiosity, is this linked to a PC running a Linux distro, or Windows/MacOS?

Edit:
To clarify, I meant this as, "Are you using this with a PC running Linux?" vs. whether it was available across different OSes. Sorry for the confusion, but thanks for the replies that address both interests!

All of them. You can even connect between multiple computers.

In my case Linux. But as far as I know there is a Windows App as well. Though I can't tell you if it's any good. Maybe there is something for MacOS, too, but I'm not sure.

Thanks! I was asking as I've heard of some jank with the Windows app (which, kind of to be expected given it's having to adjust to a different OS), and I think there is a MacOS version too, but haven't read as much about it & its quality.
