I was considering buying their lifetime subscription at the end of this month, but all the bots posting reviews and commenting on Reddit don’t help.

I heard about this VPN in one of my recent threads here, and I believe Lemmy is cleaner than Reddit, so here I am, ready to read what you think about the service.

Would you use it to torrent? I said I only needed to watch movies, but eventually the stuff I watch is in a “niche” language, and the sites are overcrowded, so downloading from torrent is probably the best way (at the moment I’m downloading from the streaming sites through an app and Proton, but it’s getting a bit slow).

^ It’s not even Proton that’s the problem; it’s the sites that are slow as heck, and downloading an episode each evening sometimes is too much of a PITA. (while watching it like a normal user, well after dinner is basically a 1-minute wait every 10-15 seconds or something like that)

    They call it “fastest” but it’s just marketing. I bought the lifetime subscription a few years ago but stopped using it because it’s dreadful. I use VPN unlimited on tablets/phones more often

      Same as you. I don’t remember exactly where it was from but I had a promo for lifetime for $1. I used it once and never used it again. For “fastest” it sure was slow as hell!
