    What is so bad about nordvpn? What makes protonvpn better?

    Been a nordvpn user for around 4 years now. If I need to switch I’ll do it, this is just the first time I’ve heard it isn’t all that great.

      ProtonVPN is open source, meaning the code running ProtonVPN can be inspected by anyone to make sure privacy is being upheld. ProtonVPN is also based in Switzerland, which has strict privacy laws. NordVPN has had many criticisms about their privacy and security practices. ProtonVPN also has a free tier.

        Thank you. I remember back in the day hearing they didn’t keep logs and figured “well alright sounds good!” and that was the end of it.

        I’ll give Proton a try when my current plan of Nordvpn ends. Didn’t know Proton was open source either, so that’s pretty cool! Wish I didn’t get downvoted to hell for asking a question, but it is what it is.
