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

+1 to Mullvad. I only switched to NordVPN because I wanted to use an IP address from a country they have servers on.
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!
i've been using mullvad for almost a year with zero issues. fast, cheap and reliable.
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 -
- Airvpn
- Azirevpn
- 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 ?
Airvpn with wireguard client prolly. I would just get a seedbox tbh roughly the same price but with more features
Mysterium looks pretty interesting, being completely decentralized. All the mainstream VPNs are pretty shady to me, being run in a centralized manner and some heavily marketed by "influencers".
ivpn cuz you can pay with Monero
Torguard has worked well for me

Astrill.
IVPN is good. A little on the expensive side but based in Gibraltar, good GUI for x86 machines, CLI client for other machines, and ofc openvpn config files. Wireguard too, "hardcore" tracker blocker, always-on firewall available... A lot of bells and whistles. AND really good customer service.
What do you folks think about Azire VPN https://www.azirevpn.com ? Looks similar in feature set to Mullvad & co (except Azire still supports port forwarding).
Mullvad losing port forwarding isn't the big deal a lot of people have made out of it.
Unless you ACTUALLY USE port forwarding, why would you give a fuck?
ask yourself this, "Do I actually have a fucking clue what port forwarding is?"
If the answer is no, just delete this bullshit post and do 10 minutes of research please.
Windscribe still has port forwarding and it works well. The Linux CLI sucks, but you can use the official Wireguard client or gluetun.
I'm currently using AirVPN and even tough the website looks like a really old forum it's a fast and cheap VPN with port forwarding.
