I know protonVPN has a gui, but it’s kind of barebones from what I used which was the free version, but maybe the paid version is different, I don’t think so though. I also heard from people that Mullvad was kind of slow. Any good alternatives?
I know I can use OpenVPN with basically any VPN, but it seems like every time I do that even though the setup is simple there is some stupid error that messes it up. I’ve mainly only had issues with surfshark.
Just use the wireguard app and use the configs from your vpn provider
As others said, do not use the OpenVPN protocol. The WireGuard protocol is superior.
Mullvad, Windscribe, PIA and IVPN all have GUIs on linux.
I was also looking for a GUI for Linux, and found this video, which demonstrates how to install one.
Hope it helps:
Hi, i use SurfShark they have a nice GUI it works well on Ubuntu.
Just use the wireguard
App and use the configs from

Correct me if I’m wrong, but using the wireguard app will encrypt everything, but not change your IP address.
And we are in the VPNtorrents sub… so I’m kinda wondering if that’s a great idea, since it’s exactly that damn IP address that’ll get you caught.
Wireguard is the same on Mac / windows or linux. Using your VPN providers config files is the same across all distro’s
Thanks.
So it would be the IP address of the VPN provider that would appear in the swarm?
