Hi just converted the deb version of the surfshark client version 1.2.3-1239 to rpm and wanted to share it just in case someone needs it, it works well in fedora 37. haven’t tested in other releases.
original link for deb
https://ocean.surfshark.com/debian/pool/main/s/surfshark/surfshark_1.2.3-1239_amd64.deb
link for converted rpm file
to install just sudo dnf install ./surfshark-1.2.3-1239.x86_64.rpm

Nice that you share your work.
The right place to put your rpm would be on copr:

You should be able to log in with the fedora account.

unfortunately surfshark client is proprietary and can’t be hosted on copr.

Hi @tobagin
The surfshark package has been updated.
How did you convert the .deb to .rpm?
I tried to do it with the alien tool, but I was unsuccessful in the implementation.
Just for users, who stumble over this topic while checking if surfshark is available for rpm based systems.
There is an alternative available in the package system see:
sudo dnf info proton*
