I used Mullvad for a long time, but hearing about one of the two CEOs actively supporting and financing swedish Nazis, I'm looking to put my money elsewhere. That's the second one after Private Internet Access (who supported Gab).

I had AirVPN and Surfshark being recomnended, how do people here feel? What do you use?

Curious about the software? at least on linux, the gui is very, very dated and it doesn't even have split tunnelling I would rather stick to a gui app. I haven't looked at their android app yet.

They offer standard wireguard and openvpn configs. There is no need for a "Airvpn client" gui.

I prefer a gui, and have little faith in a company that is unwilling, or incapable of providing a decent one. Mullvad has a very good gui on linux, and android, as well as a browser extension. Airvpn has a linux app that looks 20 years old and doesn't even have split tunnelling, apparently their android app also doesn't have split tunnelling, so wtf are they actually doing, and where is their roadmap?
