  • According to r/VPNTorrents, Proton and AirVPN are the only recommended VPNs since they are the only well-established privacy-respecting ones left. New ones are popping up with promise, like Azire, but time will tell. As for Proton, I decided against it because of limited port forwarding and lack of IPv6 compatibility and settled on AirVPN. Also, I personally try to avoid keeping all my eggs in a single corporation's basket, so I cannot advise buying into the full Proton suite if you're remotely tech savvy and/or privacy-concerned. But they are genuinely great products if you have no desire to do any tinkering or shopping around. I just can't see the appeal in my VPN activities being directly tied to my email. Oh and I almost forgot, I switched from PIA due to their lack of IPv6 support and acquistion by Kape, a known adware company.

  • I know it's at least supported on Tumbleweed because I use it

  • What made you move from each one? I run Kitty+Zsh on my main distro & Alacritty+fish on my gaming distro, but I can barely tell a difference.

  • Definitely taking his time to make sure it drops as most likely the least buggy, most feature-rich on-release Lemmy app yet. He's gotta outperform the other 20, so may as well learn from them.

  • Same question here. I'm about ready to upgrade from my 8GB Pi 4B, but I'm overwhelmed by options and lost as to where to go next.

  • I've gone for a Neon Genesis Evangelion theme, so my router is SEELE, my Pi server is TheMagi, Thinkpad is Unit-00, Laptop is Unit-02, work device is Unit-03 (waiting to build my gaming PC for Unit-01). Then my SimpleLogin aliases are weapons like the sonic knife or lance of longinus.

  • If they support IPv6, port forwarding, and gigabit speeds, I'm basically sold. Though according to r/VPNTorrents, their no-logging policy has not been battle-tested and certified in courts or audits. Do you know if that is still the case?

  • Ah yeah that rules out Njalla then. Did Azire literally just come out? I'm having trouble even finding much on it other than a couple pretty negative "give it a year or two" reviews and some very spammy shill behavior on Reddit.

  • Yep they did around May and then IVPN followed suit in June

  • Only 400Mbps? Damn I'm just under 1000Mbps with PIA right now...

  • I've never heard of Njalla, but seems like their port forwarding is pretty limited. AzireVPN sounds good on paper, but I just haven't seen or heard nearly as much about it.

  • I would very much like it. I just upgraded to gigabit internet so I'm trying to accomplish the trifecta of Cat6 cables, Wifi6 capability, and IPv6 functionality.

  • Yeah that seems like the only option according to r/VPNTorrents' Recommended VPNs. Do you get good speeds? I just upgraded to gigabit and would hate to lose out.

  • I already use the free mail service and it is tempting to buy into the entire suite, but I would rather not keep all my eggs in one basket and preferably separate them as much as possible. Not sure I'd like my email tied to my VPN activities!

  • If I remember correctly, they've been purchased by a less than reputable advertising company and potentially keep logs. Plus they do not support IPv6 as far as I can tell.

  • Use Mull -- it's like LibreWolf, for your phone

  • I go for the best of both and use the Nobara kernel in Garuda

  • Have you checked out PeerTube? Or Odyssey (however they spell it)? Or LBRY?
