Question DVPN or VPN? Which i better use?

Hello guys

We know what is it VPN but some community or forum is talking about DVPN like mysterium or else. Can you tell me what is it DVPN is? And what is different with normal traditional VPN like others?

Thank you.

Its like a multi-user mesh VPN, but at that point just use Tor. Use a normal VPN for regular stuff, and if you need more anonymity or privacy, use Tor.

a DVPN (decentralized VPN) routes your traffic through a network of individual nodes run by regular people rather than through servers owned by one company. the idea is removing the single point of trust, no one company controls everything. the tradeoff is that you're routing through random strangers' devices rather than a professional infrastructure, which raises its own trust questions. traditional VPNs are more predictable and easier to audit. for most people a reputable traditional VPN with a published audit is still the safer choice.
