Mullvad VPN Speeds (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

I've been a user of Mullvad for a while and love there stance on privacy. I really like how they have stayed focused. But recently I feel like there speeds have gotten way worse.

For example I may be able to get 150ish up and down without a VPN but once I add Mullvad it gets way slower. Still very useable for most tasks but limiting when I have bigger downloads. This is across several different networks to eliminate it just being an individual network problem.

Has anyone else been experiencing this?

when I used Mullvad I would notice this every now and again also. Generally it was related to whatever city I was connecting to. I'm assuming you've already tried several though.
