DARbarian, do piracy w What are good mullvadvpn alternatives with port forwarding
@DARbarian@artemis.camp avatar

According to r/VPNTorrents, Proton and AirVPN are the only recommended VPNs since they are the only well-established privacy-respecting ones left that still have port-forwarding. New ones are popping up with promise, like Azire and a couple others, but time will tell. As for Proton, I decided against it because of its limited port forwarding and lack of IPv6 compatibility and settled on AirVPN But Proton has genuinely great products if you're interested in the full suite. AirVPN, in my opinion, is just the last great VPN. Open-source & fully featured client, run by activists, anonymous accounts, crypto purchasing, IPv6 compatibility, full port forwarding, great support, Tor integration, the list goes on.

Dirk_Darkly,

You can add Windscribe to that list. They’ve been shown to respect customers and offer port forwarding.

They're super transparent with whatever they have going on with them. They had one probe within the last couple years but they don't keep logs so I'm not sure anything bad for the users is possible, and what VPN hasn't been asked for it's information lol

The issue is that authorities were able to retrieve the private key off the server. Yes, Windscribe adjusted afterwards but, it puts their security practices into major question. If you read their response to the situation it was a ton of side stepping the issue, trying to put blame on other VPNs, or trying to act like a government getting access to one of their private keys was not a big deal.

Windscribe is fine, back when they were shit-tier I grabbed a lifetime pro subscription for $30. For the common user, who just wants to download their very legal Linux ISOs on qbit its a good VPN. I just think Windscribe gets a pass on its history more so then a lot of other VPNs.

Imprint9816,

I think people forget how trash windscribe was for years or that they had one of their servers seized and private keys stolen in 2021.

They have made a lot of progress but its still odd how people ignore their past history.

Dirk_Darkly,

You might want to add the proper context that the servers were siezed by authorities (so not stolen) and they were very transparent about the fact that it was a legacy system. They also followed with a plan to rectify, including third part audits. Every organization makes mistakes, it’s how they respond that matters.

If you’re looking for a VPN provider that hasn’t had issues ever in their history, good luck. You’ll just end up with the ones who lie and cover up incidents.

evendude7763,

Did you read their comment?

’ they had one of their servers seized and private keys stolen in 2021 ’ they never said servers were stolen

“If you’re looking for a VPN provider that hasn’t had issues ever in their history, good luck. You’ll just end up with the ones who lie and cover up incidents.”

This is the type of ignorant statement makes it hard to take you seriously. First of all its not true, and if you really believed it, why waste time stanning for Windscribe? What’s your pitch? “They all suck so go with this one”

Sure, trustworthy VPNs are few and far between but they do exist. On the no port-forwarding side you have Mullvad, and IVPN and other newer ones that seem promising for now. On the port-forwarding side you have Proton and AirVPN with other newer ones that have some promise.

Even OVPN, who now has dubious ownership, has a far better track-record then Windscribe.

Sharpiemarker,

Well-recommended. Thanks for the information!

rambos,

Damn, I didnt have that good reasons, but I also got AirVPN (;

dutchkimble,

Is Nord not considered privacy-respecting anymore?

gigarapid and hostingbydesign is also good

das_monk, do piracy w In reference to iptv, what is meant by "1 line, 2 lines, etc"

Probably how many devices that can run the service at the same time… Within the same household presumably

dutchkimble,

Yup, this, but it can be anywhere in the world doesn’t need to be same household/ip or anything

BG3, Battlebit and Starfield.

dutchkimble, do piracy w Media server

I think theres no way to know if content is on usenet but not getting found through your indexer, apart from trying another indexer and noticing the file is there. I’d suggest getting 2-3 lifetime memberships and they should cover your needs. Sometimes lifetime is available fairly cheap, sometimes it’s not open and you have to wait. In terms of recommendations, I like nzbgeek, drunkenslug, miatrix, and nzbplanet.

lessthanthree, do piracy w Sanity Check Setup

I’m trying to recreate this setup in my system. I’m running Ubuntu and I have everything in Docker. I have PIA running outside of Docker. I was also able to get Gluetun working in its own container, too. Does anyone have advice?

Working through the new Guild Wars 2 expansion. Once I’m done with that, it’ll probably be back to Baldur’s Gate 3, though that might change if it takes me long enough that the new Cyberpunk DLC is out.

Or are you going to backtrack all the way to the nearest safe room to deposit items then all the way back

That’s what I do. Gotta pick all shits up.

Voices of the Void. Because I like the subtle feeling of dread and knowing any action could result in something horrific.

Factorio. Optimization can always be improved upon.

Kenshi. Finally got my base built. Only cost a few arms and legs… and some of them weren’t mine!

Sharpie, do gaming w Should I get Monster Train or Inscryption?

Inscryption > monster train by a wide margin. Go into it as blind as possible. Don’t look anything up. It’s the most memorable deck builder that I’ve ever played. I wish I could erase the game from my mind so that I could experience all over again.

Monster train was fun but I felt like there were runs that were pretty much unwinnable from the start due to RNG. Unlike Slay the Spire, some of the classes just didn’t feel viable. I only played it with the DLC enabled so I’m not entirely certain how the base game felt.

TL;DR there’s absolutely no situation where I would ever pick Monster Train over Inscryption

Can finally rum 2077 so in the last third or so of that. Flipping over to BATTLE TECH when I need something slower.

ryathal, do gaming w Should I get Monster Train or Inscryption?

Monster train is very good. It’s probably a bit easier than others in the genre. It’s more about how many modifiers you use to make the game more difficult than simply finishing. You can generally always beat the game on any given run, you aren’t as dependent on getting the exact right cards or unlocking more powerful cards.

I can’t speak too much to the dlc, I don’t have a ton of experience with it, but my friend has literally unlocked and completed everything and still enjoys the game.

gk99, do gaming w The 8 hours escaping the Police Station in RE2 Remake are maybe the best 8 hours of gaming I've ever experienced

Honestly, you’d probably like a reasonable chunk of other RE games for the reasons you listed. Several of them also have randomizer mods if you’re playing on PC, which can change the locations of item spawns, enemies, and even what room is on the other side of the door (for the older games) so you really have no idea what’s around the next corner.

4, 5, and 6 are more linear, but 4 and 5 are great for inventory and economy management (with the caveat that you should play 5 in co-op) and 6 is definitely a skip. 0, 1, 3, Code Veronica, and Village are all recommendations from me, though RE2 is one of the most beloved games in the franchise for a reason.
