Mullvad is not the first on the list?

FastVPN has malware in the payload, be careful when installing!
Mullvad no longer supports port forwarding, making it completely useless for torrenting which is my main use case.
Really? I was planning to switch to Mullvad.
Had to leave MV because of this. I went to Proton, though I did need special software to support its form of port forwarding without introducing a regular hassle. All good now, mostly.
I was looking at Proton too but I’m already a customer and the VPN is going to be shared with family members. I worries if they can access my mail if I share my account.
You can get around this by generating the files for OpenVPN or Wireguard for them and sending those.

Not seeing anyone mention Private Internet Access. Are they not good anymore?
I run FastVPN for Linux workstation for development work and accessing geo-restricted resources. Setting it up via command line was straightforward, and it integrates well with my Linux workflow. The connection stays stable during long coding sessions. However, there’s no GUI application, which makes server switching tedious through terminal commands. Documentation could be more comprehensive for different distros. Sometimes reconnecting after sleep mode fails, requiring manual restart. Still, it’s one of the better Linux-compatible VPNs I’ve tested for everyday development tasks.
I will have to suggest ovpn. Minus it being slightly more difficult to search issues because it’s too similar to openvpn , I’ve been super happy with it for my use case. I ended up choosing them over mullvad because of the port forwarding issue.
