Hey everyone,
My mullvad sub is about to expire, so I’m deciding whether to just pre-pay for another year or switch to something else. I typically just use it for blanket protection when using my computer or phone, but have been thinking I might like to set up a torrent box proxied through a VPN, too. (I have kids, so I may not have time for this for a while, tbh.)
My general understanding is that people like mullvad and also like ProtonVPN. Any general suggestions/thoughts?
for some reason my gluetun container (connected to deluge/transmission/qbittorrent containers) all stopped working this year with Mullvad despite about a million different config attempts, so I switched to airvpn on the recommendation of a friend and it’s been rock solid for almost a year. I want to say it was port forwarding that caused the issue but I think it was something else (it’s on the gluetun GitHub)
Mullvad was great for # of servers and client apps. Airvpn is less polished but just works™️, is cheaper long term, and imo has been a better use case if you want a seedbox
