Thread moved from The Lounge forum to Anonymity.
I've used It a number of times (free version), and It's not the best when downloading torrents. It keeps disconnecting, which Is very Inconvenient. I've yet to try It's paid counterpart.

Personally haven't had any major issues with it, but its been a while since I've used it actively.
I had the premium or "Plus" plan before and would sometimes bump into speed issues and the speeds would sometimes drop to under 15 mbps.
Usually I have ~200 mbps when connected to it (now I have a "Basic" plan), which is pretty good imo. Not sure how that compares to any other VPN service though.

I use the free version and do not have any issues.

I believe when you first sign up they give you a free seven days of premium. I tried them for a while because I used Proton Mail, so I thought they'd have an alright VPN. Which they did, but I just switched to Nord.

Well why I am asking. Because I am thinking of upgrading my e-mail from Protonmail.

So you're not looking into their services anymore? if you're not, just use Nord. They don't keep logs and theire servers are great.

I was thinking about using both. But I wanted to know if anyone had any issues before I get it.

Oh, there's no problems with it. I think you should get it if you wish to.
