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.

The same 3 VPNs get recommended each time this question is asked:

  • Mullvad
  • Proton
  • IVPN

Only Proton should be recommended for torrenting since it has port-forwarding. I don't know why people love suggesting these even without port-forwarding.

Because most people aren't tech savvy enough or have the need for port forwarding.

Windscribe works for me. You can either use their software which is open source or create personal VPN configs on their site to use it with your distros network manager.
