Hello all!

I have been out of the piracy game since a little before mullvad lost port-forwarding; I know these things are ever changing, and to my understanding ivpn is a good bet at this moment in time.

I was wondering what everyone else has been using. As well as if anyone has tried the gui client for ivpn either built from source or the AUR build(I do use arch btw).

I am open to any vpn client that has a good reputation in the community, and build-able from a repository; A gui is preferred but not necessary, and absolutely NO account creation (Except for generic account numbers of course).

Thanks in advance for anyone who takes the time to answer.

Well they claim they don't have a logs policy plus they don't monitor traffic... I stopped caring about this some time ago haha.

Then your only option is ivpn I guess.

Yeah, still I can only take the company's word to any of these claims. After further research it looks like IVPN doesn't have port forwarding anymore either; If I do go the VPN route, I may still test my seeding speed with Mullvad as I've used them for a number of years.

Oh they don't support port forwarding? Hmm I couldn't find this but , too bad. I guess I have to wait and see the Proton's implementation.
