What's the best VPN for me?

It’s hard for me to find a good VPN, I don’t know exactly what I’m looking for and a lot of people contradict each other. “Nordvpn is safer than X” “Na, ExpressVPN is better, Nord is sketchy”, etc. I’m looking for a secure VPN provider and something reliable, with privacy. Do you guys have any good vpn recommendations?

Mod, can we start a poll? Would be good to see a breakdown of what everyone uses.

It depends on what you’ll use the VPN for, as each excels at different things. If you’re a developer , you should have a VPN that has fast speeds. If you need a VPN to download torrents, you need to get a VPN with privacy that doesn’t log records, and located in a second world country. That way if they are contacted by an entity, they aren’t in a position to search for access points according to the time they’re required to (and track those logs all the way back to you).

My personal rankings.

- NordVPN ( rapid, reliable anonymous, expensive)

- PlexVPN ( speedy, cheap many servers, and works well when used with Netflix or games)

- Tunnelbear ( good, but not awe-inspiring )

- PandaVPN ( it’s quick and simple to use and I’m using a 3 days of trial for free )

Nordvpn offers a three-year deal. I generally don’t purchase long-term VPN (more than one calendar year) in the event that I need to switch providers. If you are able to purchase three years of service, Nord is the best option. If not, I would recommend PlexVPN. It is as reliable as ( more as) NordVPN but the price is more affordable. In addition, it provides specific servers for gamers to increase speed.

Approved. Casual poll here: https://letsfind.app/v/raX6tz

I will update this post for the top answers, and moderate this discussion as best as we can.

Sometimes it’s hard to know which VPN is the best to use. That’s why I like to ask on Reddit. Reddit is a good place to find out about VPNs because lots of people share their experiences and opinions about them. Most people agree that free VPNs are not good because they can sell your information or show you lots of ads. It’s better to use a paid VPN that you have to pay for because it’s more private and secure.

There are many VPNs that are recommended on Reddit. It depends on what you need, but most people care about speed, streaming, privacy, security, and cost. Some good VPNs are Mullvad and Surfshark. Mullvad is good for privacy because it has anonymous accounts (no email needed) and you can pay with cash or cryptocurrency. Surfshark is fast and has lots of servers for streaming. It’s also good for watching shows on different websites. When it comes to cost, it’s a good idea to look for sales or discounts because VPNs often have them.

The best VPN overall is NordVPN. It’s a little more expensive, but it’s really good for everything. People on Reddit say it’s fast, private, and good for streaming. It also has a feature called NordLynx that makes it even faster. NordVPN has lots of servers in lots of different countries, so it’s easy to connect. It also has servers that can help you get around censorships. It’s been checked by two different companies to make sure it’s private.

NordVPN also has a feature called Threat Protection that helps keep you safe online by blocking bad websites, ads, and trackers. It can also identify files that have malware. Another feature called Meshnet lets you connect to other devices and create private, encrypted tunnels. That means you can connect to other devices instead of just a VPN server.

If you want to do more research before you choose a VPN, you can check out these Reddit communities: r/VPN, r/privacy, r/vpncoupons, and VPNTorrents (if you care about torrenting). These are popular and people are always talking about VPNs on them.

Might want to remove “discount code ‘redditspecial’ . 82% off - 2y + 2mo free, $2.30/mo.” in cell A1126. Thats all the way at the bottom left :wink:
Edit: Its linked to surfshark promo page.

Does PlexVPN also work well on mobile/location required wifis? I’m pretty noobish when it comes to computers
