Well although it is true that my IP is always the same to the vpn, I make sure there is no logging happening since the vps is setup completely from scratch with wireguard on OpenBSD. A bigger plus for me is that the VPS is in another country rather than the UK since I don't like the way ISPs here in England sell your information. I also have another VPS for interacting with work servers which only allow whitelisted IPs and my home IP is dynamic.

I hope you don't mind me asking, but isn't the point of no logging with VPNs that if there's a request for the user doing a network request not being able to answer because it wasn't stored? With your VPS it's your derver, so the request wouldn't even be made because it's obvious its network requests are yours
