I’ve heard a lot about AirVPN, but it doesn’t have an app on Fdroid or anything. Yes you can download it directly from their site, but that is a little cumbersome.

Another option I’m considering is Windscribe.One major knock against it (and the same thing for AirVPN) is that htere is no tutorial available for installing the wireguard version on openwrt.

I really don’t know enough about these. Windscribe has been sort of tested in court (again that was in Greece, and they don’t have the same might of an authoritarian state as the US or some place), so that’s a plus.

I don’t know, I’m so confused that it sort of makes sense to stick with Mullvad at times.

    There’s Proton, but given the controversy… yeah (though I did look at what they donate to and it seems to not be right-wing companies).

    IVPN is perhaps your best bet.

      Proton made one positive comment about some Trump anti censorship policy. Their “controversy” is really overblown.

      Mullvad is directly donating to Nazis.

      That said Proton doesn’t have the same extreme privacy as Mullvad. But they are much cheaper with promos and also have good app support.

        Proton also keeps leaking information to the government that led to protesters getting arrested

        A Mullvad founder and co-owner donating to Nazis is NOT Mullvad directly donating to Nazis.

          No, but it is Mullvad customers money going directly to funding an obviously far right party.

          The co-owner is very much the major funder of that party.

          Honesty is really easy.

          OP asked for options, not for this debate to go around in circles again.

          Repeated misleading marketing on both their social medias and websites such as the false “no-log” claim that got someone arrested
