What are some ways to use my VPN?

Last year I purchased a VPN subscription so that I could consume the Japanese internet. Over the entire span of a year, however, I haven’t used it a single time. I am thinking about canceling the subscription, but since I’m only improving at 日本語, I think it would be better to keep it and find some ways of exploring the Japanese internet.

The English internet has a lot of “weird” websites, and this was one of my favorite things about the internet growing up. I think maybe the internet has become more homogenized through social media, but it would still be interesting to see if I could navigate the Japanese internet to find stuff like this.

If anyone has any idea of what I could do with a VPN, please leave a comment.
