Mullvad vpn is great. They offer different ways to pay so you can maintain privacy and you only pay for the amount of time you want.
I started with Cyberghost because they were cheap and had no issues. ProtonVPN my go to now though.
Why is everyone anti NordVPN again?
At least in the context of the question:
I'm new to vpns, what's port forwarding?
still using mullvad and haven't had any issues.
they don't have port-forwarding, how can be that not an issue for torrenting?
port forwarding isn't exactly necessary, but it does help with connectivity.
I'm still using Mullvad and QBittorrent and I torrent my bloody black guts out with no noticed degradation in speeds since their announcement that they were no longer supporting port forwarding. It's anecdotal, I know, but so far I haven't noticed any problems.
For what it’s worth, I’ve been using the free tier of hide.me coming from 2 years of surfshark. The speeds aren’t great. But it’s $0 and it works 🤷♂️
Got a lifetime subscription for FastestVPN some years ago. Its slow, but it works and is unlimited so 🙆♂️
Yeah... I'm not sure how much I would trust that.
Its not for privacy, but for deniability. I wouldn't "trust" any traditional VPN.
I wouldn't trust them to keep me 'hidden' but I do trust the commercial VPNs not to snoop on my traffic or do other nefarious things. Something like this, I wouldn't trust either way.
