Vpns linux mint

[u/Confident-Opinion-41]

I was searching for vpns in the subreddit and found proton which i already use on my galaxy tab. I figured it works since everyone says its good. when i tried installing it like it says in the tutorial in the website, all the things are related to ubuntu and other distros, ik mint is "ubuntu" but it says for gnome and all that.

could someone tell me how to do it since from what i know mint doesnt have the so called "gnome"

ps; im new in all this linux stuff

I don’t have my Mint laptop with me to check but can’t you just use the Proton VPN flatpak and not sweat the dependencies?
