Mullvad is the way 🫡🤙🏼

Top 3 reasons to run a VPN?

Orbot (Tor VPN) in App Store

I'm using Mullvad and it works perfectly!

Feel like it would be good to have a security ‘best practices’ out there for noobs with nostr. Given that the space is so new there are a lot of frayed edges currently. I’m not sure everyone is aware of the potential risks at this stage (self included).

And use nonkyc bitcoin

Internet experience is so iffy on VPNs. I use Proton & it’s just ok. Breaks a lot of apps on my phone

Proton VPN is good too

What’s your current network setup? Can you share?

I am wondering is there any way to implement something on the client side. For example on iOS there is orbot and would be cool to see it’s integrated into client so the person can turn on it in the settings or it will be turned on by default.

Does mullvad have LN support already? Asking for a friend...

Mullvad only accepts onchain so if you want to buy using the lightning network, you can use this service: https://vpn.sovereign.engineering/

What would you say the risk is in relation to nostr? Websites I visit now my ip adres, people i call know my phone number. Interested in hearing your view on this.

I know everyone raves about mullvad and ivpn these days (and I'm sure they're great) but in over a decade airvpn has done nothing to convince me to look elsewhere. They've also been accepting bitcoin since at least 2012 or so. https://airvpn.org/aboutus/

That answers my question earlier on whether Tor-only relays would be beneficial. I assume the performance would suffer a lot though. I was eyeing Mullvad for a while as an alternative to protonvpn because I really want to run wireguard on my router, but after listening to Marty Bent's podcast on I...

Do the common relay implementation s log IPs?

I've been using Nordvpn but have recently started testing IVPN. It's sweet.

Even if it’s linked to a domain with ssl?

Nice point. Reminder to not spend your sats on paid vpn, and instead get cheap 10usd/year vps and setup your own vpn. Its too simple this days with automated scripts. #[0]

reminder that your IP is visible to every relay you connect to so consider running a vpn such as mullvad.net or ivpn.net, both accept bitcoin
