Ask HN: Anyone using a WireGuard VPN they’d recommend?

Surfshark has Wireguard on everything other than Linux as of now. It's cheap and fairly reliable in my experience. Hopefully they add Linux support soon, although it's not like their native client or OpenVPN have given me any grief on Linux.

I'm using WireGuard on an AWS Lightsail instance. Current uptime on the instance is 695 days, its not missed a beat.

Cost is ~$4 per month.

Interesting, do you ever get IP-blocked by websites — or strange errors that resolve when you turn off the VPN?

[cutthegrass2 → TimTheTinker]

Only twitter and only partially. The app (iOS) works OK save for viewing individual timelines. It shows a "user does not exist" error. This resolves when I disable the VPN though. My personal feed works without issue including displaying all responses in threads.

Have not seen any issues on other sites.

Running the server end on an edgerouter as well as a sub $1/month VPS and both have been smooth!

May I ask where the vps is hosted?

[moipersoin]

I'm doing this with NordVPN on Linux .... Seems OK so far...

I host my own on a Rpi4... it works really well.
