Maybe this is better asked elsewhere, but question basically in the title. I was wondering if anyone had any experience with Mozilla VPN, and if so what they thought about it.

    No experience, but it is supposedly MullvadVPN in Mozilla clothing. I think there are less servers than mulvad potentially for the same price (cant see their pricing in australia).

    Privacy policy suggests they log a bit more about you if thats a concern. If so, probs just better to use mullvad. Literally proved the other month that they had no logs after a being raided/warranted.

    I use Mozilla VPN and it works great for me on Mac and iOS. Nice updates and stability improvements over the last year since I started using it, and I like that it’s an easy way to support an org I like

    I use it to support mozilla. However, I don’t really care for the application, so I just use MozWire to generate profiles, then use my normal Wireguard stuff with NetworkManager.

    I have it and I think it works fine. I have only used “free” VPNs before so I can’t compare to other paid VPNs but it does is job. There are at times issues with one server, but that could just be my internet having hiccups. If you support Mozilla and what they do, I’d suggest giving it a try. That’s why I am using it. Plus Firefox Relay + container tab servers.

        I was referring to Mullvad specifically, not Mozilla.

        But Mozilla uses the same infrastructure in a partnership it seems. Again, not sure if its any good. I heard there were less servers overall (like half) than mullvads available servers, and Mozilla’s privacy policy notes a fair amount of dara points they collect. Not that i would distrust them, just that mullvad doesnt even take an email address from you. They generate a unique ID for a new account. Payment there is the only data point, but they have crypto and were working on payment methods that didnt involve paypal/credit cards.

    I recently switched from mullvad to Mozilla and it’s been a smooth transition. I don’t worry that much about some logging because I just need something to connect my torrent client to so I don’t get a letter. I used to have a subscription on mullvad but they got rid of recurring subscriptions like last year, and when I went to change my payment method I got locked out and forced to use one time refills.

    I don’t like that they force you to use their app though, so I’m still shopping around for alternatives that can just give you the ovpn or wg.conf since an all obviously can’t be run on my router or my synology
