It’s so difficult with so many options and all these bullshit “discounts”, coupled with the fact that different VPNs charge different prices based on what country you’re connecting from…

What is the cheapest functional VPN you’ve come across? Bonus points if it supports IPv6.

    PIA is $40/yr and if you’re just dodging hollywood lawyers, it is perfect for that. I can easily saturate my 1Gbps connection. It’s a well known service so some companies block their IPs and you’ll get captchas but I think that’s unavoidable.

    If you have state actors interested in your activities, keep shopping.

        Their port forwarding works for me, but you’re right. It takes some knowledge to make it work.

          The real issue is that they only allow port forwarding on certain endpoints (and when I was still using them, none of the endpoints that supported port forwarding were in the US which is a headache)
