- ornornor 22d agoCurious what alternative you found as a replacement. Could you share?
- RamRodification 22d agoI'm not the person you are responding to, but Proton VPN? That's what I switched to after it turned out one of the two Mullvad founders took my money and gave it to a local lunatic politician.
- erxam 22d agoI've heard AirVPN being mentioned around, if it interests you.
- UltraSane 22d agoI switched to ProtonVPN which has a heavy emphasis on port forwarding.
- Denatonium 22d agoI did too, but I really miss Mullvad's static port forwarding system. It's a pain having to continually run a NAT-PMP client, and it doesn't work when you're connecting to ProtonVPN on your router.
- ZeWaka 22d agoSwitched to Windscribe at the time, quite cheap.

- stutstev 22d agoI stopped using Mullvad when they discontinued OpenVPN support (another one to add to the parent list). OpenVPN, if nothing else, provides a wider array of connection options that have a better chance of fulfilling your specific network needs. It supports both UDP and TCP, unlike WireGuard. I say this respectfully, but Mullvad is perhaps “dumbing down” their VPN service in an effort to simplify their operations and cater to a wider and more general audience.
