Switching to Proton VPN (PIA vs Proton)
Hi all, just thought I'd share my experience in case it helps someone else...
I have been with PIA for almost 6 years now and recently I have been having speed issues and also changes to how they handle port forwarded connections.
I only had 2 months left before I was going to renew for 3 years and thought I'd try out proton as it is reviewed very highly, and it did not disappoint.
PIA using their "Optimal connection" Halved my internet speed, Proton on the other hand allows me to use almost max connection speeds.

PIA has served me well but it is time to move on as Proton's port-forwarded connections are much easier to use and they also offer email services among other things.
