Do you use a VPN? (hexbear.net)

Hello everyone!

Just a quick question on if you have a VPN and why? I'm struggling to see a reason beyond accessing media, but I already use Stremio plus AllDebrid for that (highly recommend by the way. ~4 USD a month for basically the netflix of torrents).

Yeah, a commerical VPN isn't necessarily for everyone, especially if your needs/threat model are already covered.

Spinning your own wireguard or openvpn service at home or on a VPS does allow you to access your home or VPS network though, which has different functionality from a commercial VPN

I really enjoy using Tailscale for accessing home devices and servers.

Tailscale has a Mullvad exit node paid option. I plan on switching to this once my regular Mullvad sub ends.
