Windscribe - Free VPN and Ad Blocker di Windscribe
Recensione di BenoitAndrieu
Valutata 3 su 5
di BenoitAndrieu, 7 anni faWhen it works, speeds are good and browsing is not affected too much. It is not constant, it may be really quick and sometimes quite slow. Overall good.
Unfortunately, after some random time, it becomes impossible to do anything : browsing to new pages, refreshs. When it happens, gpu usage for firefox is high.
Only solution is to restart firefox which is destroying the usability.
It doesn't happen everyday and sometimes it happens multiple times per day...
I haven't tested the Windscribe windows app.
Edit : I finally switched to Opera for the cases when I need privacy. The windscribe extension can perfectly work some days but the others requires way too much restart of Firefox. I leave it with 3 stars because of the monthly 10Gb free limit.

- Valutata 1 su 5di ZevSua, 17 giorni faУбожеское конченое фуфло. НА сайт захожу авторизуюсь. НА расширение авторизоватся никак не могу. Несколько десятков раз пробовал - нивкакую. Просто фуфло нерабочее
- Valutata 4 su 5di Vorona, 19 giorni faFunktioniert gut, ein Stern Abzug, weil der "Verbrauch" an Megabyte pro Nutzung nicht immer nachzuvollziehen ist.

- Valutata 1 su 5di Babil, un mese faThe extension isn't working for me. For the past year, I haven't been able to log in using it. The desktop app works, but the extension doesn't.
At the time of writing I tried to log in again and it said "rate limited". Funny thing is I can log out log in 100 times using the android or desktop app and that will work. But no.. not this extension, not even once. - Valutata 5 su 5di Bardi, un mese fa

- I like Windscribe's approach to privacy and their dedication to it, don't get me wrong. But... boy is their connection super slow. It was a pain to browse even simple news websites containing mostly text. Then there's the fact that the addon says upon initialization that it uses Ublock which I already have, and that using both simultaneously is not recommended. On disabling Ublock origin, I got ads on YouTube. I couldn't find the setting that allowed me to use my old ad blocker instead of Windscribe's built in one that only seems to work with the VPN on.
- Valutata 2 su 5di Utente Firefox 12376444, 2 mesi faРасширение перестало работать пару лет назад - до сих пор так и не работает. Конкурентный VPN работает через расширение firefox, а Windscribe не работает.
- Great addon. Really. Works perfectly on Firefox and on Chrome.
Would be better if there was more than 10gb on the free tier, but nonetheless, this addon has a lot of extra options for tightening privacy and also there are free servers in many countries!
* for getting 10gb for free (every month) — you need to register an account and confirm your email on windscribe website. - It's impossible to login:
"Something went wrong with your request. Please try again later."
Debug log says:
"errorDescription":"JSON.parse: expected double-quoted property name at line 5 column 1 of the JSON data"
Tried in 2 different PCs, with 2 different Firefox profiles.
