    FYI, AirVPN is slow as hell. That being said, they don’t require an email to sign up and allow you to pay in Monero, unlike Proton

      Huh? I did a speed test with Air and it was relatively the same before and after connecting. Tbh it was just one test, I wasn’t really checking super hard. But I had it running in gluetun for my Qbittorrent and it works like a dream. Way easier to port forward too, I fucking hated Proton for swapping it every docker reload.

      Proton requiring you to doxx yourself via phone numbers and email addresses is such crap. Can’t sign up via Tor either, they limit crypto they accept and when. They log your payment methods, and just suck so bad compared to Mullvad. I know expecting privacy for email is a non-starter, but they pretend like their email is private when there is so much logging they do there alone.

      Thanks for the heads-up with AirVPN, I was told they had good customer support but ¯\(ツ)/¯ I would not know.
