Hello, my vpn subscription will soon end so I am looking for reviews about good private VPN. I will probably stick with proton or try airvpn or PIA but I just wanna know if someone tried Geph VPN.

I didn't find any review on reddit or lemmy. Seems like a chinese VPN but if a VPN works well in China and has good privacy policies it's probably the winning combo.

Depends on what you need a VPN for.

I don't know them but they seems to be from Estonia marketing themselves for evading censorship. Are you in a country that censor VPN? If not why do you think the tradeoff might be worth? The 2 hops should have an impact on bandwidth and latency and there is probably no port forwarding.

Using a VPN is just moving your trust from your ISP to the VPN. Why would you trust a VPN you know nothing about giving them access to all your internet traffic?

No my country is pretty fine with VPN. I just don't want to die stupid that's why I ask for any review about this VPN I didn't heard about before.
