I'm using Astrill. Flawless router integration if you have a supported model (i.e. most somewhat modern ASUS and a bunch of others), works with Android, iOS, Linux (tested on Xubuntu, clean and functional GUI, identical to Win) and Windows.
Huge list of servers, generally high speeds, works well with Netflix and Disney+ (don't use any other streaming services), has a DNS Leak block and a killswitch (disconnect internet if VPN fails). Feeling pretty good about it, been using it for well over 5 years now.
Sure is a bit on the pricey side, but you get 1 router + 5 client installations as per the terms & conditions, and they don't begin kicking out devices if there's fewer than 7 connected simultaneously. So if you share it among 2-3 people, it's already a bargain.
And if you happen to live in China, it's kinda without alternatives to begin with (which is my main use case).
Damn, that pricing is tough. It makes ExpressVPN look like a cheap option, lol
Express is rubbish though, especially in China. Hardly ever works. Neither do any other OpenVPN applications, really. They simply block the handshake. Astrill has a proprietary protocol that's somehow not been blocked.
