Seems fairly underrated. BitTorrent allowed and port forwarding supported. The feature list and blog make it clear that from a technical viewpoint, they know what they're doing.

i use purevpn around about 5 years i think
for download and netflix us,uk,ca,jp
i used cyberghost 3 years but the gui isnt perfect , at the time.
for free use ok
protonvpn is for me very slow, i use mostly japanse server. but other countrys were slow too.
but the main problem is with covid the vpn use is in massive use. so many provider are slow at many times.

My advice is to disregard vendor software and set up OpenVPN-GUI yourself, or even better, run the tunnel on your router where you won't have to worry about leaks and disconnections.

Sometimes switching between UDP and TCP is worth a try. UDP is generally better for tunneling since it doesn't cause packet meltdown, but it may be that TCP offers better throughput, depending on how your router and/or provider deal with the traffic.

I signed up for Surfshark last year & have had problems. Be aware that after 30 days there is no refund even if there service isn't working properly.

I've always thought Surfshark's price is too low to be true ($2 a month if you sign up for a year), but yours is the first negative review I've read so far.
