Outline uses Shadowsocks (socks5 proxy) instead of OpenVPN, which makes it harder to detect.
Someone has tested it in China and it can get around the Great Firewall.

I imagine a multitude of small privately run VPNs will be much harder for the Chinese government to shutdown versus centralized VPN providers.
