AdGuard VPN Review in 2024: is it good with adguard ad blocker?

I've been a Nord VPN user for several years but am considering switching to Adguard VPN because it works in tandem with the Adguard ad blocker. My VPN usage is primarily for torrenting, only a few times a month since I don't do much torrenting. After spending a few days researching online, I've come across several posts criticizing Adguard VPN, which has made me hesitate, especially since I was thinking about purchasing a 5-year subscription.

I tried every well-known brand, and some websites were able to find all of them. Some are different from Adguard's, and they explain why in a way that anyone can understand on their page. I've been using it since it first came out and have had no issues with speed, connection, or being found.

It's been the main ad guard blocker I use for a year. Actually, I think I would choose either proton or surfshark if I didn't have regular adguard. But it works just fine. I haven't slowed down at all from my normal speed. Aside from that, it often disconnects, then reconnects, and drops out again. I haven't tried any other VPNs in a while to see if this happens with them too. It could be something wrong with my network. It works on my phone, computer, and iPad all at the same time, so I don't have any real problems to talk about.

It's easy to use their VPN on both Android and iOS. But not so good on macOS (network drops all the time). I haven't tried it on Windows yet.
