I've been using them for years, actually I think since their inception. I found a couple 50gb frees in college that treated me well since in college I used it rarely. After I graduated I got the lifetime and never looked back.
I'm not particularly savvy and so I've had random issues getting split tunnel and port forwarding working on a CG/NAT service, but windscribe itself has great customer service and seems very reliable.
One thing to note is they've been under eyes for some data, but I believe their stance is firmly "we have none to share, so here you go" effectively. Definitely double check on this and asses the risk for yourself, this is just from memory.
Another thing I appreciate about them is they gave refugees lots of free service during the struggle. They recently ended it after it was abused, but they really did a lot.
