As TonyTonyChopper this thread said, sometimes that obscure software is what you are required to use in your institution, or they don't offer support for anything else.

Yeah it sucks. Of course there are outlying situations where people are obliged to use shit software.

But for those with a choice, just don't use shit software.

Are these tools implementing proprietary protocols or something? So far I have not found a VPN I couldn't make work with openvpn or wireguard.
