What's a good VPN service that is reliable in terms of connection quality? (reddthat.com)

I've been using iVPN for the past few months and the connection is total dogshit. I find myself turning it off every now and again to get things to load and that defeats the purpose of having a VPN.

Very easy to script this though, if it's important to you.

Not on android.

Also, on desktop, it's not easy to script. I mean, I wrote the script. That part was easy. But downloading the openvpn files took like 10 minutes because it's about 200 clicks because Proton doesn't have a "download them all" button. It's almost like they intentionally made it difficult, so as to force people to use the same server (which makes them easier to track)
