Moving away from Surfshark (lemmy.ml)

My Surfshark sub is almost up and I'm looking for my best option.

I'm so glad this little community has popped up, as looking for reviews on Reddit and elsewhere online is next to impossible, since every review is simply an ad in disguise.

I need a VPN primarily for streaming, so need it to be fast, and obviously security and privacy are key concerns too.

I've narrowed down my choices to Mullvad, Proton or sticking with Surfshark. Surfshark has been ok, but I assumed there must be better out there.

What are everyone's thoughts on the best performing service at the moment?

Thanks.

I don’t use any of the ones you mention, but am pretty happy with PrivateVPN. It works well as an app on my iPhone, but the main use case is for torrenting. You can connect to privacy focused countries and do kill switches so you don’t leak your ip. I used Surfshark as well, but the torrenting part was lacking a few years ago.
