I think REALITY is the newer protocol. I remember VLESS being somewhat more detectable

nah, vless is the protocol, reality is a newer obfuscation method that works over vless

edit: op, protonvpn has a free tier that works in russia, so likely works everywhere, or if you're comfortable with buying a vps, sshing into it and running some commands, look up x-ray, and use on of their gui panels
