Take that with a grain of salt or not, but if you don't find them on the rating sites for "top VPNs of 2020, 2021, 2022 etc., I can tell you that it's not because they are not worth it.
Before the pandemic I would have to travel to about 9-12 countries per year, and Windscribe never let me down. Easy interface, quick and stable connection, and also no logs being kept.
I was lucky to get a lifetime a few years ago, and they have been getting better and better. Since that's not being offered anymore, this is a great deal imho.
Windscribe has worked great for me when I was in China and in Russia.

I bought a $15 lifetime for proxpn as a back up and many months later they went under. But I got my money's worth anyway. Now I have a lifetime on VPN unlimited as the backup. If they fold in 6 months I really won't care because the wind scribe lifetime is paying for itself many times over. Good speeds, lots of connection choices. Hard to find ones that will work with real debrid but there are a couple.
SlingTV is better at this, they don't care which IP addresses connect.

WAAAAAY better than NordVPN - on par with ExpressVPN for a fraction of the price.
THIS is the deal I've been waiting for! Thanks OP!
Note that all VPNs of the mentioned VPN work fine but every once in while block everything and then one would not be able to access internet. And you have to uninstall the software, install it again and it works again. Sometimes having two separate VPNs can be bad also. My experience with Windscribe has been that it works but reduced the speeds significantly. It is a Canadian company so it can be forced to provide one's information if required by law enforcement.
Other major issue with VPNs is accessing emails on Google, or searching on Google. Most of the time it does not work.

Like everyone else who did not do the lifetime, gosh darn it.
But I've been reading that NHL has been catching on and blocking VPN IPs -- is this true and is Windscribe a good VPN for that matter?
Please, tell me how paying more for Windscribe will help me? And if you can't, it's because I'm right: you'll find people who don't like any given VPN. It's all YMMV.
We haven't even touched on the fact that Windscribe is (last I checked) based in Canada, which belongs to Five Eyes. Yes, you're trusting any VPN not to keep logs, but I have more faith that a company based in a country without any laws compelling the release of user data than one that is. Because the fact is that neither you nor I can say exactly what data any VPN provider keeps.
You do you, man. Hopefully folks take your single review with the same grain of salt that they'll take my single review.
Recently switched to Frontier Fiber's 500/500 plan. Now getting around 375 down with Windscribe.
I suspect it has a lot to do with the lower latency on fiber.
