Thoughts on VPN providers? (lemmy.world)

What's everyone's opinion on a VPN provider? I've used Nord for a long time, but my subscription is up next month and I'm exploring my options. I use a vpn 24/7 on my laptop and most of the time on my phone as does much of the family.

Requirements:

Support for family plan/multiple devices
Apple Ecosystem - macOS/iOS clients (Linux nice to have)
Fast enough to always be running on the device
Easy to switch between servers and countries
Not on a lot of deny lists

I did a couple searches here and was surprised I didn’t come across this question before. I hope it’s not asked too often!

E: Currently leaning towards Proton

A random vpn in asia won't sue me for torrenting.
