I want to use IRC/SSH at school but both seems to be blocked. I assume they blocked all ports outside of 80 and 8080. Is there anyway to get around this? Maybe a proxy? How would I set this up?

    They block Proton as well. Pretty much every vpn I’ve tried they’ve blocked. Even niche ones.

      You can try Riseup VPN, the VPN client has a unique feature where it uses Tor to bypass the block on the VPN server and then connects to the VPN. You can also just try using Tor through Orbot and with a bridge like Snowflake or request a custom bridge from the Tor Project.

        I tried to access the site and I got websitw blocked by admin. I might have to wait till I get home to try it.
