Please help me to install a proxy manager in Fedora Workstation

Hi, I am not a developer. I already installed Fedora Workstation on my laptop.

Usually on Windows 11 I used Throne app.

Unfortunately Fedora app search bar doesn't find it.

What I can install to replace Throne (proxy manager) on Fedora?

Provider: Xeovo (of course)

Answered by B bnch

Xeovo was suggesting to download the precompiled release, unarchive it and run the program manually, i.e by chmod'ing the executable and running it. I do understand why that's cancerous.

There are no flatpaks providing VPN functionality but GUI's talking to the background service because of the bubblewrap's sandboxing and permissions constraints.

The preferred way of installing software that isn't present in the mainline repositories of your Linux distribution of choice is to add 3rd party repositories/packages. In case of Fedora, you can either download the copr version or follow the officially recommended download option
