So Mullvad is over. What's the next best VPN?

I literally just ran out of time on my subscription too lol.

AirVPN allows port forwarding and supposedly keeps no logs. I don't remember if they've been audited or not

Edit: No audit. So we can't be sure about the logs claim. They DO have payments over monero though, so that's nice at least.

Ya, I am also moving to AirVPN.

Maybe we can "pressure" them into doing an Audit. Their linux GUI client sucks, but we can use the CLI client just fine. I just wish they had an AUR official version.

🤦🏻‍♂️I just renewed mine for a year. Guess that gives me plenty of time to start looking for a replacement
