Default Can't attach a photo to a PRIVATE MESSAGE or use a VPN to log in here

Seems I have no option to send someone an attached photo via PM any longer. There used to be. The only way is a direct link to a file share server like Dropbox or PostImage and have person open it that way which can be unsafe. Can't even INSERT (yes, you can attach) a photo any longer even into a public message text as used to be common on here. Can't imagine why an attached file option isn't available in a private message yet is on the open forum?

Also can't use a VPN service to log in to TOTV. VPN's are now commonplace for browsing safety and privacy. Even Apple provides on in current iOS 15 built in to the OS. They are offered by all the major Anti-Virus providers and standalone, I have tried 3 different major commercial ones. Constantly have to turn it off then back on.

Posting here because "support" never answers questions so maybe they would see this and confirm changes or explain here.
