NordVPN is not on the same ethics level as Mullvad but if that doesn't matter, is has servers in 111 countries.
We're using mullvad for now
Now that we are getting data ; we find mullvad's 44 countries to be limited. @Popolechien @kelson42 please list the countries you want and then we'll try to find a provider
Russia, China, Bangladesh, India, Pakistan, Iran, Turkey, Jordan, Yemen, Iraq, Egypt, Nigeria, DRC, Sudan, Cuba, Peru, Mexico
OK, here's a list of 38 VPN providers. The wireguard criteria is mandatory. I mentioned (at the bottom) some that are not compatible just so we don't look into them again

From this it's very clear that the widest access is HMA which has crazy coverage. All our list but Russia. It even has servers in 🇲🇱 ! Unfortunately it's not compatible.
The best compatible one is the 🇨🇭 ProtonVPN which only lacks Iran, DRC and Cuba in our list. It also includes a lot of less common countries which are of interest to us.
@Popolechien the 1 year plan is 60CHF.
