They have been trying to make this a thing for a while now. Glad they are finally near the finish line!
And if anyone had doubts about their no-log policies. These guys are just great!
I just bought in to mulvad today via Tailscale, so far so good, I like it!
I love the entire process. I love that I can send them cash in an envelope with an account number on it and they'll just top it up lol. I wish every online retailer had to do what they voluntarily do.
They take Monero too which is even a stronger discrete payment.
Long time customer but since there is no port forwarding I switched to airvpn.
Same but I went with proton.
How are you finding Air in comparison?
Works stable, nothing to complain on that side. I like that you can add more than five devices, even if you cannot use more than five simultaneously. But that covers my dual boot systems perfectly without hassling auround all the time. Still got twenty ports, now its five for new customers. But I use only four. And I like the highly customizable DNS with all its filter lists for ads, trackers, and more.
What I dislike is that their app always wants root privileges, and for some reason I am not able to get the workaround running. So I use the fedora/Gnome Wireguard implementation now. And that for some odd reason the android app always closes unexpected, I think I tried everything, but nothing helps. But it works fine with the Wireguard for Android app. Never had those issues with Mullvad.
I always loved sending cash or buying voucher cards for Mullvad, but on the other hand I got now three years for less than €65,--. Wait for a sale if you want to buy a longer subscription.
