I only used AJS paid version and Transocks free version myself. AJS was very good but it is a bit difficult to register and pay for the fees.

Between Transocks and Malus, I believe both will work. Transocks is the more established player in this market so it may be a safer bet.

Must be a very weird feeling if someone signed up 10G with MR and finds it's very difficult to load china websites.

Is it so bad meh

I have both M1 and MR.
Yesterday I watch bilibili video using MR and refresh the front page. For 5-10 sec, it showed blank page which is something I've never seen before, as I usually use M1, then after that, I decided to use back M1 for normal browsing for fewer surprises.

I did a ping test just now to compare M1 and MR, really can see some difference.

M1:

Old thread but may be still of some reference value.

M1 10Gbps plan, TP-Link Archer BE805 as main router, IPv4 only.

Intel N100 Mini PC with dual Intel 82599ES based 10Gbe SPF+ adapter,
LxC container on top of PVE.

Looks pretty bad...

Only exception is s.taobao.com which seems to have CDN now (used to be bad for M1).
