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.

I've been a ProtonVPN user for years and they have been rock solid since day one. It's also convenient for me as I have moved away from Google services and replaced them with Proton's other applications.

I just decided to make the switch to protons services last week, so far it's working well enough. I haven't found a good way to automatically backup photos from my phone to my proton drive in an organized way though...

Proton Drive is beta at best... i works, just not how normie end user would expect. there work orders. But I am too lazy to set it up

I use syncthing on my phone to backup photos to a drive on my homelab.

Yeah that's the method i keep hearing about. Just to lazy to set it up lol

Syncthing is great, it's so simple you almost can't call it setup but I kind of miss the homelab part so I used my computer, now I miss that too but I will get it repaied very soon (hopefully)
