For the past month i’ve tried a few VPN’s here:
Let’s VPN = Extremely stable on PC and Mobile
Mullvad = Very stable on mobile and pc but slower, higher ping
ExpressVPN = Works well on PC, not that good on mobile. Higher pings, slower.
Astrill = Good on mobile, terrible on PC lately, rarely connects on stealth.
Wannaflix VPN.
I’ve stopped using anything else for years now.
Mullvad on the phone has become awful for the last month, constantly disconnecting and reconnecting and slow
Has anyone tried IVPN recently? I wanna know how well it works
Decided to use Mullvad as a backup for Astrill. Very impressed with the performance on iOS, much better than Astrill.
Astrill with a private IP on wireguard still gives me the best performance on desktop.
LetsVPN is the best rn IMO
Is there a VPN that I can pay for with Unionpay?
I love Shadowrocket is the best so far and I’m living in Beijing for 5 years, I have tried Astrill it’s good but it’s not working in stealth mode since long time
Are there free options to use as backups?
I’m using Astrill and it does its job, sometimes it needs to be reconnected or restarted or to try out many different servers.
Another option is to host your own proxy using V2ray .
I pay 4.2€ a month to OVH Cloud for a VPS ( the worst one but has 100mbit/s max speed which is enough for me ). I didn’t know much about it so I asked chatgpt to help me and it worked flawlessly, it’s just some linux command to type and a file to configure.
I don’t think there is a better option for China than this one.
Hi does anybody know how good astrill VPN works right now?
I roll my own, I buy my own domain rent my own VPS and install v2ray over shadow socks. Project V · Project V Official Instructions here. It’s a bit of tech janitor work but works good enough (years) I just share my site via QR code for others
If I get IP banned, I just make a new instance.
I used ExpressVPN and Astrill in the past. ExpressVPN became unusable, and Astrill needed constant reconnects.
Now I use Mullvad and Veee+ as backup. Both works great on mobile and PC.
Others recommend LetsVPN, but I have no personal experience.

If you are into self hosting you can look to setup a v2ray vpn instance. It works pretty well if the peering bandwidth is available.
Proton used to work out here, but alas.
Is the vpn dependant of the region? And if so any good recommendations for Beijing and Jilin province?
The shadow rocket ones?
Does anyone have any tips/recs for gaming with discord? I am on Windows 24H2 and if I install Astrill, Discord won’t launch at all
