Mullvad, iVPN

Proton. It replaced PIA for me when it was introduced. Since I was already paying for Proton mail, there was no reason to keep paying for a separate VPN as well.

The answers are always going to be Mullvad, IVPN or Proton VPN. Windscribe is also a possibility.

Mullvad VPN paid with Monero and NextDNS paid version.

I use Mozilla VPN, which is just Mullvad but more expensive. I want to support Mozilla though and enjoy the integration with my multi account containers so i stick with it

Don't use express VPN. They make it very annoying to cancel. I thought I canceled once and it didn't work.

It takes three confirmations inside a hidden menu.

Mullvad. Cheap, simple, good, and everyone here seems to be infatuated with it.

Proton

Mullvad and Cryptostorm

I pay for proton. I use it on mobile, laptop, and desktop. Its quite seamless and unobtrusive. I like a vpn that allows me to forget im using a VPN

AirVPN

Proton

I've been using Proton for half a year, and I'm considering buying the Unlimited plan

Long time AirVPN user here - never had any issues.

Only VPN I would trust is Mullvad

Proton was accused to give access to mails to authorities : https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-58476983

NordVPN and others are usually linked to your email + credit card stuff and you blindly need to trust them

Private Internet Access

Private internet access. It's super cheap too

Self hosted WireGuard

Excuse me for my lack of understanding, but why are there so many people looking to hide their traffic from their ISP with a VPN? Isn't HTTPS enough? Are you afraid of ISPs resorting to DPI or MiM to spy on their users? Is customer protection so weak in the US that ISPs are free to spy on their customers using aforementioned techniques?

Edit: I just realized that I left out people leaving under authoritarian regimes, for whom VPNs are unfortunately required to evade their government.

I see surprisingly few mentions of WindScribe in this thread. I've had nothing but good experience with them and I always read their promo emails in full (they send very few of them, and their marketing team is hilarious)

I use a combination of self hosted wireguard servers at family and friends. They connect together with Tailscale. One of the endpoints connect to the Internet through Mullvad. This makes it easy for every single device I own to connect to either Mullvad or any of a number of possible regular ISPs.

None atm. DNS over HTTPS cos im poor using mullvad's DNS server instead of VPN . Makes it bit more difficult for my ISP

ProtonVPN. The VPN works great. I'd use some of their other services but they're pretty restrictive unless you're on more expensive plans than I'm on.

I don't. Your ISP can hardly see anything you do online. Almost all websites are encrypted with HTTPS and if you are concerned about them seeing what domains you visit you can just change your dns server to quad9 or something else privacy respecting. A more valid usecase for VPN is preventing websites from tracking you IP address, downloading "Linux ISO's" or bypassing geographical blocks and for that I used mullvad but I am looking for something else now that they blocked port forwarding.

Selfhosted DigitalOcean VPS with SOCKS 5 SSH tunnelling for masking my home IP when web browsing and OVH VPS with OpenVPN server for masking my home IP for my local seedbox server. I don't really need commercial VPNs since I only really need basic functionality to mask my IP and I don't really need a shared service to do that.

YMMV, of course.

Windscribe. Prices are great, unlimited bandwidth, and 1Gbps servers for no additional cost. They have a free tier as well. They’re very privacy focused. Been a customer of theirs for probably like 5-6 years now.
