Basically I started with mullvad then turned to proton but after they introduced AI and a crypto wallet I’m just looking for what peoples opinions are.
EDIT: Thank you all for your suggestions and opinions :D

Huge fan of Mullvad for the work around respecting users privacy. They are implementing ways of skewing AI-guided traffic analysis. VPN encrypts your data but companies are starting to use AI to look at traffic patterns and help determine what that data is. I won’t pretend to understand it completely so I’d recommend reading their blog about it.
I’ve been eyeing PIA for it’s price and the inclusion of port forwarding but not sure if anyone has experience with PIA.
PIA for its* price
I would recommend Windscribe over PIA. They’re open-source and rank highly on Techlore’s VPN toolkit.
PIA also has an open-source client. I think’d need to still purchase a static IP with Windscribe to enable port forwarding. PIA also gets regular audits if I remember correctly. I’m looking for cheap vpns with port forwarding but will consider Windscribe.
