I use proton vpn but you'll get downvoted no matter what if you don't use the vpn the bandwagon likes.

This kind is behaviour is a major downfall on platforms like this.

So, um, which VPN does the bandwagon like?

[–] Ilandar@lemm.ee 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Mullvad. Its only real downside is its lack of port forwarding and it passes all the Lemmy purity tests. You will never be downvoted for recommending it.

[–] zarkanian@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Lack of port-forwarding is a deal-breaker, unfortunately.

[–] Ilandar@lemm.ee 1 points 4 months ago

Yeah it's one of the reasons I prefer Proton. Not many VPNs offer that functionality now, unfortunately.

💯 This is absolutely true. I'll look at Proton. Thank you so much
