Hi, I am an American living in Russia. I am trying to get some contracting jobs that require me to be a US resident, and they are detecting that I am using a VPN in their verification process. I use Amnezia VPN since other VPNs don't work well in Russia.

I would like to somehow use Amnezia Premium but with a residential IP address located in the United States. I assume this is impossible since Amnezia Premium uses Amnezia's servers, which are in data centers. But maybe it is possible to combine Amnezia with a proxy or something? I'm not sure.

I typically use Amnezia premium, but I also have a self-hosted Amnezia instance as a backup. The self-hosted instance doesn't work currently because only AmneziaWG 3.0 seems to work now and they haven't released 3.0 for self-hosting yet. So I'm assuming self-hosting wouldn't work even if I could walk a family member through the setup process to get it running on a rasperry pi in one of their homes.

One of the jobs I am trying to get wants me to install a browser extension as well, which is intended to determine my location.

Does anyone have experience with something like this? Is there anything I can do?

A lot of people suggest have your Hermes agent delegating to claude code, codex, opencode, or some other harness for coding tasks. I am trying to understand the fundamental difference between Hermes and a harness like Claude Code for coding tasks.

What advantage does Claude Code actually have? Maybe Claude Code is better, but why?

I want to set up kanban orchestration using multiple agent profiles so that I can keep the skills/tools minimal, reduce context bloat, and increase automation.

My thought is to create profiles like:
- orchestrator
- coder (delegates to opencode)
- reviewer
- product manager
- ui_designer
- systems_architect
- security_auditor

For those who have done something like this, did it actually add value to your workflow? How did you set it up?

How should the "coder" profile work? Did you have success with delegation to a coding harness like opencode or claude code?

I appreciate any advice you have!

Hi, I am using Amnezia VPN Premium. Two days ago it stopped working altogether without VLESS turned on. Since yesterday it has only been working with VLESS and when I am connected to the [P2P] Switzerland server. No other server works. Even though the VPN works with this configuration, the internet speed is painfully slow.

Is anyone else experiencing this? Did you find a solution?

Also, is there another Amnezia community/forum that isn't on a blocked site? I am worried I may soon lose access to Western sites (like Reddit) altogether.
