Hi all,

Moving away from USA solutions I also want a good European vpn. I contracted GOOSE because it’s from my country, but their servers are spotty on mobile and I regularly have connection issues on my Linux.

I want a stable VPN, streaming and P2P enabled, from a European provider. Who has good options? Must be Linux compatible either through an app or OpenVPN/WireGuard.

Is proton a good option?

Mullvad (Sweden)

edit: it doesn’t support port forwarding, though.

I’m looking at switching to them. I like their price plan.

Look for Mullvad gift cards. They usually come with 6 or 12 months or service and end up costing less then paying monthly. At least it is cheaper for me in Canada with the exchange rate. I grabbed a gift card off Amazon for only $75

Oh yes I see that now, I remember using port forwarding extensively before 2023, but I was not aware of its removal. What a shame /:

P2P enabled

Mullvad does not support port forwarding.

If you are torrenting without seeding (requires port forwarding) you are the reason free (community seeded) torrenting sucks now.

Nah, I auto remove torrents when I seed to 3.0

Mullvad works for me because in my country the torrent sites are blocked, but not the protocol. I just need the vpn to get the magnet links and then I switch it off.

I seed all my torrents to a ratio of 1.10 and I’m on Mullvad, so clearly someone out there is benefitting.

Mullvad or Proton. I use Mullvad and am happy with it.

I tried both on Linux (for extended period of time) and both are a good choice.
