Horrible VPN... I had nothing but daily disconnects!
On the contrary. Been using using them since 2020 for Linux ISOs and have had no significant issues at all and great speeds with the 10Gb locations. Were you using the free version??
Only annoyance that happened (this year or last, can't remember) was when one of my Wireguard locations in my state got offlined without notice when it was my primary location for one of my WAN VPN Gateways in pfSense. Ended up setting up redundant locations to load balance and prevent an outage like that from handicapping me and am kicking myself for not doing that earlier since it maxed out my download speeds for my Linux ISO torrent client (only usenet was downloading full speed with the 1 VPN location).
Were you using the free version??
Tl;DR: Sounds like a you problem?
I had a paid 3 year plan. Worked great for 2-3 months, then damn near every day it would disconnect. I'm not super savvy, but can manage to get things done.
Windscribe didn't know why it was happening either.
Also, They are big assholes, or were at least a few years ago. Seemed they expect you to be smarter than they are!
I had SurfShark prior, which was a good VPN, But they became way too expensiveness!
I dealt with manually connecting every day until the end of 3 long years!!!
Jumped ship to Nord, and haven't had a problem, except one random disconnect.
So I wouldn't jump to the conclusion of a me/user problem!

I've used them since 2018, no issues, good speeds.
Not sure why the down votes. Why are people pissed at a thing now?
Same. I've had it since they offered the one time lifetime deal (no idea how much it was back then but I think it was between $100-200). I have it on my NAS and haven't had to touch it since I installed it years ago. Running it in Docker with wireguard, also use it occasionally on my laptop and iPhone, can't be happier.

I'm still kicking myself for not getting that lifetime subscription back when it was a killer deal.

Surfshark and Nord same company essentially. Technically fine, privacy B tier.
Stay like the plague away from the half dozen or so VPNs owned by Kape Technologies which is Israeli, enough said. E.g. PIA, Cyberghost, ExpressVPN etc.
Windscribe for me rock solid. 👍

Lol. I mean if I were selling you something, I wouldn't give a very detailed reason of a semi-major issue I had in the last 6 years of ownership. Still sounds like a you problem. Snark is kinda their brand too if it wasn't obvious from their email new letters and stuff. It's not for everyone, sure, but that's kinda par for the course. Hope nord works out for you (and doesn't log your data)!

Same. Every 3 years I grab the latest deal and it reminds me what a mistake I made.
Looks like I'm good for another 6 months or so. Current StackSocial deal is $79 for 3 years, a bit less than $24/year. Don't think I'm jumping on this one but it's a decent deal long term.
