I’ve been a loyal fan of Mullvad VPN for years, it used to be the perfect VPN. Lately, though, I’m really disappointed with the quality. Constant disconnections, trouble connecting to entire regions for minutes at a time, and terrible speed loss (forget watching videos outside of YouTube). Plus, most regions hit you with captchas constantly if you try to Google anything.

This is happening on both my mobile and desktop devices, and over the past year, the quality has dropped a lot. I’m starting to consider switching to a different VPN provider, even though I really don’t want to.

Am I the only one experiencing these issues, or are you having problems too? And if you could suggest a good alternative, that’d be great. I’m not a fan of ProtonVPN and don’t fully trust them after some of the privacy controversies they’ve had with anonymous email accounts. Privacy isn’t my top priority, but it’d be nice as an extra feature.

P.S. This isn’t due to any local regulations—my country hasn’t tried to restrict or ban VPN providers. So, it seems to be an issue directly related to Mullvad
