NordVPN just lost my business with a clueless support person. The app locks up my WiFi stack and they had me doing everything except trying to put my left foot behind my right ear. Works fine wired, but that’s not going to cut it on the road.
EDIT: I set up PIA and was very happy with the app. That noted, I found I had to use wireguard AND disable kernel mode in order to get it to be stable on my WiFi connection. I haven’t played with large vs small packets.
using protonvpn here
ProtonVPN has a good Linux app. Works great.
Windscribe works perfectly for me.
In the pastI have used PIA & Mulvad on Mint. that was long ago but I would assume they still work.
I currently use Proton VPN, primarily becase I get a good price in combination with Proton Mail.
I do not spend much time with my personal machine connected through a VPN, primarily its server traffic that I want tunneled (Arrrr), for those I use wireguard config files.
Currently using Private Internet Access on several Linux Mint systems without any issues.
Have you tried using openvpn, wireguard, or ipsec to connect to their servers, instead of using their app? The service is what matters, not the specific app.
Am I seriously the only one using Mozilla VPN? I have never had issues with it and the app works great on Mint.
I use Mullvad. I haven’t been able to install or update from their repo via the terminal, but it works just fine to download the .deb file from the website and install it that way.
Tailscale with Mullvad ?
While deleting my account (which was suspiciously difficult as i had to go through customer support) they asked me for a receipt, and when i got it, it said they operate in cyprus, a notorious russian tax haven
Surfshark is also owned by nord
So its better if you delete your account, commercial VPNs are a scam anyway
Surfshark has a GUI app that I use on Linux Mint and other devices.
ProtonVPN works great on linux
Pure works fine. Never had an issue with it on Mint.
I use Nord. Now it have a “taskbar” icon to connect and disconnect so you do not have to go through terminal
Surfshark now has a native linux app.
Have used PIA but man it has been tough to bounce servers since LM22. (It broke my networking in 22.0 but figured I would try again for 22.1)
They even used to contribute to Mint but honestly I am wondering if VPN’s are having issues with this most recent distro. I used to flip between end nodes and have been unable to do that in 22 or 22.1
Express VPN has been ok for me, runs as an app in the Chromium browser
Set the app to run when the browser starts, add the browser to the apps which start on boot, and that takes care of the VPN always running
I’m using FastVPN from Namecheap, they provide OpenVPN config files and I’ve had no issues, but it doesn’t hide IPV6, so I’ve changed some config for that. It’s dirt cheap too for new users, $12 a year for the first year.
IPVanish uses OpenVPN on Linux and only works with IPv4, not IPv6. That’s OK since my routers have IPv6 disabled. It works fine for me on Linux, Windows, Chrome and Android.
Privado VPN if you manually set it up.
