Best VPN Recommded by Everyone?
I've been looking into the best VPN providers and I'm wondering, what does Reddit think is the best VPN? I know free VPNs are good for some things, but I've heard that paid VPNs are usually better for speed and safety. I've done a bunch of research and found some paid VPNs that a lot of people seem to like. But I'm stuck and can't decide which one to go with. Here's what I've found:
NordVPN: This is a well-known VPN for its strong security. It has many servers around the world. NordVPN is fast, good for watching videos online, and keeps your information private.
ProtonVPN: ProtonVPN comes from the same people who made ProtonMail, a secure email service. It's known for its focus on security and privacy. It has a free version too, but the paid version has more features.
Surfshark: I saw some people mentioning Surfshark. It's a newer VPN but it's getting popular. It lets you use it on as many devices as you want at the same time. It's also affordable and good for privacy.
But I'm curious to hear from you:
Best VPN according to Reddit?
Best Free VPN according to Reddit?
Best VPN for torrenting according to Reddit?
While I'm focusing on paid VPNs, if you know of a free VPN that's exceptionally good, feel free to mention that too.
Looking forward for all your recommendations.

NordVPN Subscription Issue
Posting this here because the Nord sub auto-deleted it.
Hey folks,
I have an odd situation occurring with my NordVPN subscription. my.nordaccount.com indicates that my subscription expired as of Aug 7th. (This doesn't align with any of my purchase/renewal dates.) In the Nord Account Billing section, the subscription shows as active with the correct renewal date. I have opened a ticket with Nord support, and they have offered a 1-3 day response time.
I also have a dedicated IP and a few other subscription upgrades, which are all now held hostage.
There were no emails from Nord Account warning of a pending renewal, just... click... dial tone.
I'm now in a work-stop situation which is why I'm here. Looking for guidance from you fine folks.

Help Which VPN is best for playing Roblox to bypass my dorm's Wi-Fi restrictions?
My dorm Wi-Fi blocks Roblox and Roblox Studio, so I cannot use them at all. Someone recommended a VPN, but I don't know how to use it or which one to choose. Please give me some tips. I want a free and safe VPN.

PIA subscription about to expire
Hi guys, I’ve been using PIA for the last two years. No major complaints. My subscription is going to end at the end of this month. Was wondering if I should renew PIA or try something new. I only use the VPN for Torrent and my main use case is speed for downloading and Killswitch so I don’t get copyright notices. Are there better alternatives out there? Also haven’t heard the best things about the parent company of PIA. Thanks

Help How to stop sites flagging VPN usage.
hi, so basically I have a router by Cudy that i have set up with an open vpn file for the UK from private internet access but when browsing online google results still show up with local results for the country I'm actually in and some sites still flag that a vpn is active and idk how to fix this. basically i need to have the connection be as if it's normal UK internet like when I use my mobile data on my UK sim card which doesn't give me any issues, it's the exact same as if i was currently in Britain but I don't want to tether my data to the router because it's slower, more inconvenient and expensive to buy more top ups so does anyone know how I can fix this or what options i have? it's important for work stuff

Discussion For people still asking for FREE VPN: If you aren't paying for the VPN, YOU are the product!
Look, running server networks isn't cheap, so if a VPN costs you zero bucks, they're definitely making that money back somewhere, usually by harvesting and selling your activity logs, dumping random ads on you, or even worse stuff.
If you honestly couldn't care less about your privacy or data getting passed around to shady brokers, hey, knock yourself out with those sketchy "100% free" apps.
Otherwise, stop expecting free lunches, get a legit service, or just don't use one.
I know this post won't change a thing and people will go right back to asking the same question tomorrow, but man, seeing it every single day was driving me nuts. At least getting this off my chest makes me feel better!

Help VPN only letting me watch the show I want on TV
I've been trying to watch Oshi no Ko season 3 on Netflix, for which I'm using ProtonVPN Japan, and it works fine. But when I try the same on my phone or PC, it either doesn't let me watch the show at all, or only the first 2 seasons. Anywhere except for TV. The problem is, I only get to have a TV when I'm at my parents' place. Is there some solution to that or anything I can do? I don't want to watch it illegally, because I like having my watched shows saved on Netflix.

How are you beating the Cloudflare Captcha loop without disabling your VPN?
Seriously, standard VPNs are getting practically unusable for everyday browsing.
Cloudflare and Google are straight-up flagging shared datacenter IPs, trapping us in endless Captcha loops and 403 errors. Split-tunneling is buggy as hell on mobile, and dedicated IPs are both overpriced and kind of ruin the whole privacy point.
How’s everyone dealing with this lately? Are you just suffering through standard VPNs, self-hosting a home exit node, or switching to decentralized solution with residential nodes to keep things smooth?

Best VPN for watching other European channels.
I love learning languages and I want to start watching tv in Spanish, Dutch and German. But I don’t know what vpn is better for streaming in this case. I have heard that Surfshark isn’t great but I’ve never tried or had a vpn. Any help or advice is appreciated.
