I used Mullvad for a long time, but hearing about one of the two CEOs actively supporting and financing swedish Nazis, I'm looking to put my money elsewhere. That's the second one after Private Internet Access (who supported Gab).

I had AirVPN and Surfshark being recomnended, how do people here feel? What do you use?

Thing I stumbled upon:

I added boolean argument & if statement inside sort_unstable_by closure:

 rust

    
//from
|&a, &b| compare(a, b) 

//to
|&a, &b| if is_reverse { compare(b, a) } else { compare(a, b) }


  

I expected binary to grow slightly, but actually got 1KB smaller.

I dug into & found that the reason is: quicksort fn became 980 bytes smaller.

Why? Not sure. Inlining looks same, quicksort just has fewer instructions.
