Still coping since Mullvad removed port forwarding. AirVPN seems to be a good alternative on paper:>20 static ports (proton only offers one ephemeral port)>free DDNS>cheaper than protonvpn, on-par with the mull if using the 3 month planWhat's the catch? Has anybody tried it?
since when is .bmping threads b&?
I am a customer and like them. Occasionally you get a shitty overloaded server and have to take a new one, maybe in 5% of cases
VPNs feel silly to me. I guess some people don't have a choice but the idea is crazy to me.Paying people you don't trust for internet service and then paying someone else to (potentially) add that trust in, instead of using a trustworthy ISP/host without a VPN.
>>108586502I use them to conduct speech that is illegal in my country. there is not trustworthy ISP for this as they are required by law to rat me out
>>108586502>>108586515I use airvpn for torrenting on public trackers, which any ISP in my country wouldn't be too pleased with. It's not an issue of trust, since I don't really trust my ISP or any VPN provider, but I believe airvpn will prevent my ISP from flagging me for torrenting. I haven't had any issues with it so far.
>>108584638What's good about port forwarding exactly? Afaik it's only good for seeding torrents and not much else.
>>108586623useful to host stuff like game servers or files for your friends when behind nat or dynamic IP
>>108584638somewhat slower than mullvad and much, much shittier appsif you are using it through openvpn anyway its good
>>108584638I don’t look forward to having to figure out how this shit works.
>>108584638Port forwarding is deprecated, we have tail scale now
>>108584638I use it.It's pretty good, but the software (Eddie) is kinda crap.
>>108586502I think VPNs are inherently more trustworthy than ISPs as some of them have incentives not to sell out.>>108586623It also helps with downloads as you can discover and download from peers with closed ports. Torrents and other p2p like soulseek are a big enough reason for me.>>108586918>>108587352Everybody says the app is incredibly shit, I'm so curious now.But it sounds like AirVPN is decent overall. Thanks anons.
>>108584638Owner?
>>108588213>inherently trustworthy lfound the moron
>>108584638AirVPN is shit and, please don't mention it around here anymore. I don't want retards to fuck it up for me like they did with Mullvad. thank you.
thoughts on tunnelbear?
>>108588664illiterate
>>108588249I was wondering why this VPN was suddenly being advertised everywhere.
>>108588249some Italian guy named Paolo Brini, apparently. No Israel.
>>108586502There's no trustworthy ISP when they all block certain websites based on geolocation. If you've got nothing to hide and aren't doing anything through a vpn is obv gonna be the go to in some situations.
>>108588824>>108584638Fun fact: they stopped selling it in Italy because retarded anti piracy laws force them to provide user data or something, but the VPN saves no logs at all making it technically illegal in its own country.
>>108589782that's a good sign. based.
AirVPN works well with Wireguard/OpenVPN and that's the most important thing, to not rely on some shitty GUI program that won't work if you use anything else but Windows and Ubuntu. Also IIRC you can pay for AirVPN in Cash and Monero, so that's a good thing too. And they encourage the usage of Tor.
>>108584638I have been using them for a while now. They seem to have a few overloaded servers and many of the IPs are just eternally flagged, but I like their policies and the price. I trust them more than the more flashy companies.
