  I’ve had an active iVPN sub for almost 8 years now. Cannot say anything bad about them whatsoever

    recently switched from mullvad to ivpn, and the servers are noticeably slower. with mullvad all the servers I used achieved my connections max speed 500 mb/s but on ivpn they usually do 50 - 300, and sometimes i need to switch server because they go down. only reason i switched was because mullvad causes a wakelock on mint cinnamon and it drives me nuts

      Is that a Mint Cinnamon issue primarily?

        Some sort of internal error specific to them and their setup. Mullvad should function flawlessly on Mint. I’ve used and installed mint on multiple PCs and all sorts of drives including usbs. The repo for updating mullvad app usually needs corrected but that is it. Mint and Mullvad are solid.

        it hasn’t happened on other distros but i have other bigger issues on them so i never could test for a longer period. took me a year to find what caused it and it hasn’t happened since i switched from mullvad. fun bonus: ovpn destroyed my nvidia drivers on mint…
