I've been using iVPN for the past few months and the connection is total dogshit. I find myself turning it off every now and again to get things to load and that defeats the purpose of having a VPN.

Use proton, Nord, mullvad if stability takes precedence over privacy

    If youn want privacy, Tor is the only thing even close. But also the 333 compromised exits are glaring :(

    Oh, agreed. I would have to trust the VPN to actually not collect my data. That's why I'm curious what VPNs people trust these days.

    Tor is great. I used to run a middle/guard relay in the past, thinking about doing so again. The problem is that reuglar people shouldn't run exit relay at home. And there aren't many companies that would allow exit relays on their servers/in their datacentre. I get why, but that leaves only a (relatively) small number of exit relays and it's so much easier for bad actors to control a significant number of them. :(
