I am thinking about changing VPN, I am currently using ProtonVPN and I was thinking about changing to AirVPN (for its prices and port forwarding) or Mullvad (Everyone says it is better regarding privacy but I don't know why).

Which one would you recommend and why? I have seen a lot of criticism towards AirVPN for being based in Italy, but if they don't collect the data as they say they do, there shouldn't be any problem, right?

I use Mullvad VPN and unfortunately they are based in a country that is part of the 14 eyes alliance. IVPN if I'm not mistaken is based in Gibraltar, which at certain times makes me consider migration

I think they meant to say that Gibraltar is a territory that belongs to the UK, which is true
