I see surprisingly few mentions of WindScribe in this thread. I've had nothing but good experience with them and I always read their promo emails in full (they send very few of them, and their marketing team is hilarious)

I recently switched to windscribe from NordVPN since my initial 3 year plan was coming to an end with nord. I really liked that you can customize a plan. I only need a few specific servers to choose from so I picked those and just pay $4 monthly instead of having to buy 3 years at a time to get a good price. Makes it easier to switch if I choose to but the speeds have been incredible compared to Nord. I do wish they would update their linux client to have feature-parity with the rest of the clients (linux doesn't seem to have split-tunneling as an option).

Support team is amazing too, got billed 13 times a while ago and they quickly refunded it + gave me an extra 3 years for free.
