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.

Tor not being the solution to other problems in the space doesnt mean its not great at what it does

Not disagreeing with almost anything you actaully said though. Just dont want people who are reducing the amount of survelince and censorship to feel like its worthless. Tor is better than any comercial vpns imho for its goal, but you 100% that network traffic along isnt everything.
