I've been using Mullvad for the past few months. Have not had many issues with it aside from the 5 device limit and the removal of port forwarding. I'm currently looking at Private Internet Access as a potential replacement. It looks like it offers 10 device limit and port forwarding included with the price.

Anyone using PIA? How's the experience?

Edit: Probably should have mentioned, feel free to offer any other recommendations, I'm not attached to, or against any specific recommendations. I would like it to have a GUI available on Linux though if possible.

Note that Mozilla VPN uses Mullvad's network under the hood. Also, depending on your device you should be able to block connections that don't use the VPN. On Android, the "kill switch" can be found in the settings as described here: https://mullvad.net/en/help/using-mullvad-vpn-on-android/#block-without-vpn
