Free VPN recommendations? (self.technology)

Hello, now that the free tier of Proton doesn't let you select a country anymore, I can't access my japanese exclusive browser games so I'm searching for a new free VPN just to login.

I know all that you are the product if it's free bla bla bla, I just want free one that let's me connect from Japan, that acts more like a trial since I don't use a VPN enough to pay monthly for it.

You can select the country if you don't use their app and instead set it up manually with OpenVPN.

On the free tier still?

Should work, I'm still connecting to the countries I have downloaded the config file for without any problems.

I just tried to download the config files myself and Proton won't let me unless I have a paid account. I can't get yhe ones I need with a free account

You can only get the configs file of the same servers that are open to the free tier.
