Howdy Comrades! I spent the morning working with the new Tor VPN that's still in beta testing on the play store. However, I could not get it above 5 Mbps. I get 100 MBPS split tunneling VPN on Mullvad. I tried the built in bridges, personal bridges it gives you, no bridges and yeah. Nothing helped. Only 5 Mbps with 200 ping.

That’s pretty fast for tor actually.

Tor is slower than a traditional VPN by design, also it’s free and run by volunteers as compared to a commercial VPN like Mullvad.

Volunteers and state agencies :)
