Sync issues on macOS with VPN

Hey, guys
Since my bug report on a forum is being moderated for eternity, I will post it here

After updating to bear v 2.0 sync does not work with the VPN enabled (latest version of ProtonVPN and latest version of macOS 13+). The cloud icon always says that i’m offline. All other apps work fine

There were no problems with bear v 1.9

Hrm, I wonder if something else might be going on here. How large is your note library? Bear 2 does re-sync all your data back up to iCloud because, on a technical level, it’s a separate app with its own bucket of space.

That cloud icon can display if a sync is taking longer than usual. Could you try leaving Bear open and running for a while to see if the sync finishes?

The sync never finishes while VPN is enabled, but finishes in a couple of seconds after I disable the VPN. My full notes backup is approximately 150mb and I have around 20-30 notes. The VPN itself is capable of streaming in good quality, and Speedtest never falls lower then 100mb/s

Do other iCloud items sync? Maybe iCloud is blocking the public vpn

Yes, iCloud sync works in other apps. However, I see that the problem seems to be fixed after updating to Bear 2.0.2 :face_with_monocle:
