I used Mullvad for a long time, but hearing about one of the two CEOs actively supporting and financing swedish Nazis, I'm looking to put my money elsewhere. That's the second one after Private Internet Access (who supported Gab).

I had AirVPN and Surfshark being recomnended, how do people here feel? What do you use?

I’ve been using Windscribe for 10 years and have been nothing but impressed. Always surprised they don’t get mentioned more in these posts.

They are talking some good shit about this too:

Windscribe would be most likely to donate to jk rowling apparently...

Looks good.

Not assholes. Wireguard support. Port forwarding et cetera.

I have seen them mentioned here, not in a good way though

My own limited experience with them was crap, and I wouldn't trust them, doesn't mean i am right though.
