Patreon being forced to pay creators through in-app purchase reminded me of a cool app I made two summers ago.
VPN clients on iOS lie on a spectrum between selling you out to data brokers or being expensive subscriptions.
Having prior experience with Digital Ocean my app made it easy to spin up droplets configured as VPNs ready to use from your iPhone.
It was so fast that droplets could be launched on-demand and shut down fast keeping costs extremely
low.
