Comments and Reviews
Used by many VPN clients (apps and routers alike) underhood, it has been the standard for many years as the de facto protocol for VPN, an alternative that is promising faster speeds and better performance but is currently new is WireGuard.
The application is declared open source, and there are even repositories on github and gitlab. But neither there nor there is it possible to leave bug reports or wishes for the development of the application, just as compiled binaries are not provided. In addition, the application does not support working with the wireguard protocol, that is, it is useless for me.
Confusing set up for home user.
The software is great, and the UI is pleasant. When a VPN provider gives you their own crappy client, you can just use this one instead.
The only downside is that it doesn't have a kill-switch. I mean it technically does, but it doesn't work in practice.
It is installed on all mobile devices - laptops, and Android and iOS-phones. One click, and I can have in any public wifi network a secure tunnel to my homenetwork, thereby surfing the net protected by my firewall and kept ad-free by PiHole.
It takes creating an online profile to use it - this makes the whole idea of anonymization obsolete
It's open source. It's cross platform and it's easy to use/configure
