I guess I’m not in the majority on this thread, but I consider the deal kind of ‘meh’. Woot had NordVPN last June for $20 for a year, which I’m currently on. Back then on that that deal page several people were posting about having gotten Nord even cheaper than that not long before. I get prices are going up all over the place, this would be roughly 20% higher ten months later, plus you have to make a 2 year commitment instead of a single year to get there. That’s a pretty good jump in price. Inflation isn’t up 20% since 10 months ago.
Also, I’d previously been on Mullvad. Thought I’d try a save a little going with Nord last June so I gave it a try, but have to say, IMO Mullvad is a much better service and probably worth the extra bucks. With Nord any site you go to seems to already know you’re on Nord. I can’t even go to youtube without them insisting I sign in to be able to see a video, which defeats the purpose of the VPN. Nord is also regularly trying to upsell you stuff which I could do without. I also find their Windows desktop app to be buggy. If I saw them with another $20 or under/1 year deal I might consider it, but I just don’t see this deal as that great.
