I've really enjoyed Torguard so far, althought I switched very recently.

If you decide to use Torguard, USE AN AFFILIATE CODE FOR 50% OFF. I used Tom Spark's (YouTubers) code, but Torguard makes it really easy for any creator to generate a code so use whoever's you'd like to support.

EDIT: It has a linux gui, which oddly must be run at root. I added a line to create an exception for only my user to be allowed to run /usr/bin/torguard as root without a password in /etc/sudoers, and it works as expected.

Torguard has also proven no logs in court, and I believe they also have never been acquired.

I switched to Torguard and have gotten MUCH better speeds than I do with Proton and marginally better speeds than Mullvad. I had issues setting up port forwarding, but it was user error and Torguard customer support is next fucking level so I got that taken care of.

Overall, no complaints so far.

They also accept crypto payments, however there is an email requirement.

I personally don't care if a vpn requires email as I can create an alias / burner email to use.

I like how IVPN does it, as you have a choice to use a random id or username and password.

I definitely care about decentralization, I think the author of this article assumes a lot about user opinion.

The other replies tell you the simplest method, however if you decide you like Liftoff and want automatic update support, I would recommend Obtainium. To add the app to Obtainium: Go to the Github Releases page for the app and put the url into "add app" in Obtainium.

If you use Jerboa, give Liftoff a try! Very snappy lemmy client.

Agreed, AntennaPod is the most feature complete podcast app I've ever used.

I too like the bar font a lot.

This is my config for sway. I've written it in an Emacs org mode document which Emacs exports to the correct location. This could be helpful for you as it is clearly cut up into sections and makes configuring sway a little simpler to understand. I haven't updated the information in the tables for every change I've made (should really get around to that), but save that I hope it can be helpful.

I've never tried anything other than Emacs calc mode, except once I tried gnome-calculator.

I love NextDNS, does everything I need it to.
