So what ARE the current "good" VPN services? (lemmy.zip)

I've used proton for a year or two now and it is fine. Great for use on my phone when I want to use public/airport wifi and it sort of kind of works with gluetun (the rotating port is annoying but it still is a forwarded port).

But I've increasingly been annoyed with Proton as a company and am looking to migrate my email/domain to fastmail in the very near future. I COULD continue to just pay for the vpn (60 USD a year is pretty reasonable) but also feel like this is a good opportunity to "shop around"

Checked the wiki and other FAQs (which all basically crib from said wiki) and they all basically boil down to proton or mullivad... except that mullivad apparently stopped allowing port forwarding which is a bit of an issue for any torrents and the like.

So are there any other good options?

Thanks

It might be an error on my part actually or of their payment system. My attempt to purchase actually didn’t work (connection dropped while attempting to buy) so that might have been why, I was trying to connect while not having an active account. (My guess, no error info was given) FYI the reason I want to try and this vpn looks interesting, is they have an obfuscation layer added to wireguard, which I find think I’ve seen before. I’ll try it again when have time in a couple days, their support got back to me to fix the payment.
