I was just curious about this because I haven’t seen anything on this community, and I don’t want to get in trouble with my ISP since it’s the only reliable one in my area. If so, is it exclusively the paid tiers, or free tiers too?
I would recommend ProtonVPN, Windscribe is kinda predatory in their pricing and I don’t appreciate it
I used wind scribe for a few years for torrenting on my phone andpc and never had any trouble. Once I forgot to turn on the vpn while downloading a movie on my phone at work (using the companywifi 🤦) and got an email from IT saying they’d gotten a warning and not to do it again 🤣😬
They do have a firewall option to prevent scenarios like that
Last I checked you need to purchase an addon to have port forwarding with Windscribe.
These are good options in my experience that are P2P friendly and support port forwarding.
- AirVPN: Relatively slow but stable, good company
- OVPN: Some stability/app problems but fast
- AzireVPN: Lacking features but overall good and fast
Air is the cheapest out of the bunch, they might still have a sale going on now.
Windscribe had in my opinion always had a great level of transparency as well as the funniest marketing by miles!! Seriously check out their YT videos. While I don’t have a VPN at the moment I would definitely recommend Windscribe to people who ask.
I have no experience with Windscribe other than that I recall looking into them when I was personally looking to replace Mullvad.
All I can offer is that their pricing is pretty much on par with ProtonVPN, who I have found to be very solid.
Proton also has a free tier, though I’m not sure how well P2P works on it.
As the other user said, they removed support for port forwarding. They are my #1 pick for anyone where that is not a concern.
