From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

You must isolate the problem to figure it out.
Try with another device using the VPN and try with your computer without the VPN.
Also I would suggest to check if this isn't related to your wifi or router configurations/setup. Once I had a router that sucks a lot and for once in a while I had to reconnect or even restart the router to make it work again
All of my other devices are either Windows or Android for convenience. The VPN works on Windows, but I can't isolate this issue via that route as those devices are old and have their own issues.
I have tried running my system without vpn and this specific issue hasn't appeared from yesterday until now. It is making me feel a little uncomfortable not having it on though.
I'm going to try another suggestion, then I'll come back to this one if it still doesn't work.
