(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.

    I was using mullvad for a few months and noticed that a lot of websites I wanted to use were not working for me. Plus they removed port forwarding.

    Since then I have been looking for alternatives.

    Currently I’m considering -

    1. Airvpn
    2. Azirevpn
    3. PIA

    Pia seems to have a really good deal for the 3 year plan. This particular plan is so cheap that other providers prices seem ridiculously high. I have not heard much good things about PIA, so I still havent bought it.

    I have generally heard a positive response on Airvpn.

    Don’t know much about Azirevpn.

    Are there any cheap yet “not shitty” vpn providers that you guys suggest ?

      I switched to airvpn. It gets the job done.

      • Not as fast as mullvad on gigabit but it’s good enough
      • the app doesn’t look great, but yeah.
      • In general cheaper than mullvad.
      • I have no idea if they are blocked from streaming sites, I only use VPN for torrents.
