#asknostr Do you have recommendations for a simple VPN for beginners ? :)

Best options are Mullvad, IVPN, or ProtonVPN

You should also use the For browser as much as you can. VPNs are helpful but have drawbacks

Tor browser*

It’s very slow :/ just want to start not leaking my IP for now

Have you tried Orbot? Best of both worlds in terms of VPN and proxy.

Never heard of it x) I will try it out thanks :)

Hey I looked into Orbot. I bought an Umbrel home, and they have Tailscale on it, it does not use onion routing but is encrypted. Do you think Tailscale is good ?

I am still learning my way around Umbrel and Tailscale. As I understand it, Tailscale is a VPN for remote access, not masking your IP. For that I think you can use Wireguard + a VPN provider. IVPN, for example, explains how to do this on their site: https://www.ivpn.net/wireguard

Thx 🙏
