Need VPN Reccomendations

I've been using IP Vanish for my VPN, despite the constant interruptions of service they cause and the need to frequently re-establish the connection. I just received note that they are increasing the annual charge from (I think) $49 to $91.99. So, while already annoyed by their operational glitches, I surely don't want to pay more for the aggravation.
What are your recommendations for a stable, reasonably priced VPN that will do a good job on PC, ios and android without a limit of more than 5 devices?

McAfee service. McAfee came with the computer, and conveniently enough has VPN. Check the software you are using for virus protection and see what might already be there!

I tried Avast VPN last year, but it interfered with my YouTube TV

As I recall, you have to select a zip code for your local channels, and the VPN kept interfering with that!

I used Torguard for several years before switching to NORDVPN. I like both of them but NORD has servers local to me and provides faster speed. I generally get 140 plus DL speed with the VPN vs 230 without.
I have never been denied access to a site with NORD.

I'll be a third to give NORD VPN a thumbs up...

NORD VPN is also HQ'd in Panama where there are no data retention laws. As such NORD VPN has one of the best "no activity log" policies in the VPN business...

I was using IPVanish but recently switched to Surfshark. Seems to be an effective one, without a huge drop in speed. I also switched to Brave Browser.
