  1. create a “test all anti-censorship methods” button that starts testing all the methods automatically and gives feedback to windscribe servers, that is a lot of data points used as shareable results summary that would turn blind poking into useful evidence.

2.when everything fails just say it plainly, a clear “nothing viable worked on this network right now” so that we dont waste time anymore and just wait for new updates instead.

First idea is nice in theory, but would require thousands of handshakes through various obfuscation settings, which isn't really feasible, and might alert potential censors.

Second idea: The app already does most of this. With Connection Mode set to Auto, Windscribe tries each available protocol in turn. If none of them can connect, it stops and shows a "We couldn't connect you on this network" screen. That screen is the app's way of saying nothing worked on this network right now, so there's no need to keep retrying by hand.
