Unnecessary and deeply concerning bow to the new “king”

Update: position got backed up by an official Proton post on Mastodon, it’s an official Proton statement now. https://mastodon.social/@protonprivacy/113833073219145503

Update 2, plot-twist: they removed this response from Mastodon - seems they realize it exploded into their face!

So apparently mullvad and windscribe are the best ones people use.

And I am using windscribe no problem.

It is however not as good integrated in Linux as nordvpn. But it’s a lot cheaper.

Edit: only on nixos you don’t have the app.

I don’t look into VPNs often but I have used PIA (Private Internet Access)for years because their prices were cheap. I integrate them into Linux using OpenVPN. Is there anything I am missing out on not using mullvad or windscribe?

Openvp works fine.

No you are not.

As long as you don’t use Nixos windscribe is even better than nordvpn. I just remembered my problem is my os and not only the app.

For mullvad idk. I used it for a month for testing and it worked fine with openvpn. I didn’t use any app.
