It is 1.85 dollars a month if one pays for 3 years. I am looking into ways of saving money so I was thinking into switching. However, I am a bit worried since 3 years ago I did the same with Nord VPN and it is sooo buggy. It rarely ever works for me. I had to switch to ProtonVPN after paying for 3 years for Nord 💀.

Never go with deals like that. Only use VPNs recommended by known privacy communities like PrivacyGuides And even when you use them, keep in mind that VPN merely shifts trust from your ISP to the VPN provider, it does not make you anonymous, that's why you should still exercise caution anyway.

I'm wary of sites like that. It's so easy for a bad actor to put one up in order to guide you to a compromised service.

It's not like you're going to audit everything yourself to ensure a service isn't compromised. You have to put some degree of trust into some entity like that anyway. Also, the community is really nice, you can join their Matrix room or a forum and ask why a specific service is listed, if you want to know more
