(LINUX USER)What VPNs would you lovely people recommend? - eviltoast

Hello all!

I have been out of the piracy game since a little before mullvad lost port-forwarding; I know these things are ever changing, and to my understanding ivpn is a good bet at this moment in time.

I was wondering what everyone else has been using. As well as if anyone has tried the gui client for ivpn either built from source or the AUR build(I do use arch btw).

I am open to any vpn client that has a good reputation in the community, and build-able from a repository; A gui is preferred but not necessary, and absolutely NO account creation (Except for generic account numbers of course).

Thanks in advance for anyone who takes the time to answer.

    ProtonVPN came with my Proton plan so I decided to try it. Works great on all my Linux distros, haven’t had any problems. Kill switch works too, bind your torrent software of choice to the VPN device and you should be good to go.

    Make suse to use one of the P2P specific servers for best performance.

    No nasty letters from my ISP yet!

      Have you been able to get ProtonVPN to work with WireGuard on Linux? I believe their VPN client on Linux only uses OpenVPN and I’ve tried to pull a WireGuard config file for a P2P server but every time I try to use it, I get no connection.
