If you use a VPN, would you recommend it? Have been using Nord but it is very glitchy and often doesn't connect.

Expressvpn
Been using it a couple of years now. Worth every penny!

That's the other name I'd heard from podcast ads!

The child already knows that the VPN service is an extension for Chrome, Firefox, Opera browsers and a mobile application for iOS that encrypts your Internet traffic, hides your IP address and allows you to unblock prohibited sites. Now many people download such an application for themselves. I'm not an exception! I installed this service on my phone https://veepn.com/vpn-apps/vpn-for-android/ and now I can watch movies from various popular resources that were previously inaccessible to me without any problems!

PIA. Private Internet Access. I've been using them for over 10 year and it's never skipped a beat. There's at least 100 different networks to choose from and I think I use use the same account on 8 different devices.

If your subscription hasn't run out, remove Nord then reinstall and it should operate smoothly again. I have used it without problems for over 5 years but I don't tend to use the automatic connection but instead choose a country from a different time zone when servers will be less busy. I pay about £5 a month which is the discounted rate.
Express is very good too, but more expensive.

I totally get your frustration with glitchy VPNs. Been there, done that. I used Nord for a while, but man, it was a headache. Constantly struggling to connect, and when it did, the connection would drop out randomly.
Anyway, after one too many issues, I decided to switch things up. Did some research, read a bunch of reviews, and landed on ExpressVPN. And ever since I made the switch, it's been smooth sailing.
So yeah, if you're in the market for a new VPN, I'd definitely recommend giving ExpressVPN a try. And hey, if you're still on the hunt for options, you could also check out proxy servers. I found this resource that might help you out: http://pyproxy.com/?utm-source=crd&utm-keyword=?s1111
