Hello, all
I’m sorry if there is an FAQ somewhere. My VPN is about enter it’s yearly billing cycle and I thought I would come over here and see if anyone had a better suggestion. I’ve been using IPvanish for the last 10 years and have been pretty satisfied. I picked it by going into the darkweb and seeing what the criminals recommended to each other.
If anyone has other suggestions or tales before I renew, I would love to check it out.
Tailscale Mullvad combo
Don’t know if Tor proxy front ends like Orbot or Carburetor count as a VPNs. If so, I highly recommend them.
Top 3 for me are IVPN, Proton VPN and Mullvad.
I personally use Proton VPN because it has lot’s of servers to choose from.
I suggest using https://www.techlore.tech/vpn to compare VPNs and see which one has the features you want.
I recently started using WireGuard hosted on elest.io platform It works realy well, we are a 4 people company full time using it and i pay around $15usd a month with a dedicated ip It’s self hosting made easy https://elest.io/open-source/wg-easy

Refer this page for better understanding about vpns and to know about good providers in market.
Windscribe is also good which is the same company own controld.
Airvpn is perfect for my needs (torrenting)
Proton or mulvad
If you can live without port forwarding, mullvad is another great option.
OVPN is a 1-to-1 feature clone of mullvad (wireguard, multiple device keys, crypto payments/cash in the mail, no usernames/emails, etc.) AND has port forwarding. Switched to them when mullvad sadly closed their ports, no problems since. Can’t live without port forwarding.
+1 for OVPN. I switched to them from Mullvad for the same reason. They are also one of the more trustworthy VPNs in my book ever since they actually won a court case proving that they actually practise what they advertise.
It’s what I use and it works well for me. It seemed like the best option when I was researching this recently. Plus the icon is cute.
It’s all around goat unless you torrent maniac… You can still torrent without port forwarding, just not at high speeds
I love Mullvad but for some reason they refuse to add reverse split tunneling, so imo the only options are IVPN or Proton.
Reverse split tunneling gives you the ability of using the VPN only in the apps/programs you select.
You can set up split tunneling yourself if you run the wireguard/OpenVPN daemon manually and move the “mouth” of the tunnel to a separate Linux network namespace.
Last time I researched it I didn’t found easy answers. Do you have an easy script?
IVPN, Mullvad, or Proton. Criminals aren’t necessarily smart, I remember a ghost phone that criminals thought were secure and it was a honeypot. Shoulda used Graphene for free.
ANOM?
That sounds familiar
encrochat?
Two these are the goats. Figure out your use case and pick one.
Mullvad.
Hi just wanted to share these 2 links, since others have already answered your question:
Links should help you decide what to use for other apps as well.
I personally use Mullvad since I don’t need port fowarding, but it does come with full IPv6 support.
airvpn seemed nice but i havent tried it.
It’s very good. I download a lot of obscure torrents so I wanted port forwarding, and it’s very simple to set up. The user experience is great. The only part they could work on is the desktop client, but I needed split tunneling so I use a third party one anyways. But I’ve never had any noticeable slowdown and it’s very stable.
Mullvad, and if you need port forwarding like @[email protected] said protonvpn is decent too. Proton executives have had some controversial statements supporting trump though making me wary of them
FWIW I am not enjoying the Proton app experience. I can’t favorite servers so I have to manually search and connect to the location I want each time.
