Has anyone tried Nym VPN? I know it’s different from Mullvad VPN, Proton VPN, and IVPN as it’s decentalized, but aside from that, what else makes it stand out from the others? It looks interesting and was thinking about trying it out, but I know it’s a newer VPN and I haven’t been able to find reviews about it and wanted to see if it’s even worth it.

    I’ve tried it. It’s very slow. The app on iOS has two “modes” to choose from when connecting. One is labelled “Fast (Wireguard)” and the other is labelled “Anonymous (Mixnet)”. The “Fast” mode is still two hops so it takes forever to establish a connection. You get to choose the entry and exit nodes though. The “Mixnet” is 5 hops. Slow af. Barely useable at all.
