Just renewed proton vpn yesterday (didn't get any mails or anything, it just popped a box out of nowhere), had that sweet 3 year deal running out 🥲. Its some cash (a hundred something for 2 years) but I'm trying to do my honest work.jpg.

That's pretty expensive. PIA is far less and just as effective and I'm sure there are others.

Does they allow torrenting + port forwarding?

[–] Laser@feddit.org 2 points 2 days ago

I heard that yes, but it depends on the server / region you use (e.g. no port forwarding on US servers)

I use Proton VPN, and their mail and password service. It has all worked flawlessly so far

[–] Valmond@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Me too, except I didn't get the email saying my pro vpn was about to expire, which might be my fault ofc. Gotta check the oarameters :-)

It's really good IMO and I'd recommend it fullheartedly, Switzerland has some of the best laws out there too concerning privacy too.
