TLDR: slow, unreliable, problematic
I knew this required an account; I have VPN with socks5. Do NOT use instead of vpn: this is to change address in browser independently. The extension is not reliable. Use an external client to populate browser socks5 fields or ssl web proxy address. This might be their SSL WEB proxy given port 7070 option. Who knows?
BAD
(1) Frequently it complains authentication is incorrect. Repeated attempts with saved credentials eventually works.
(2)
connection is not one button simple. click the one button for the lotto of connecting.
(3)
disconnection is frequently poorly indicated. toolbar icon color does not always change and text on button not reliable
(4)
port selection is not remembered
(5)
there is no list of location data centers to avoid known-to-you providers like for me m247 peering.
(6)
appears to be oversold as single connecting testing on speedtest rarely exceeds 8 speeds. I have completed optimization on windows laptop and linux machines for openvpn throughput achieving near wireline for my Tier 1 providers. TorGuard is not remotely close to a Tier 1 provider.
(7)
function of adblock tickbox unclear. does this force dns resolution? no thanks. I will keep DoH in browser via NextDNS or Control D.
(8)
AMO screenshots suggest can pick between socks5 and ssl web. I cannot determine how.
(9)
there is no load-balanced option for USA only or east-USA only or west-USA only.
PRO:
* can separate web credentials from vpn credentials is user control panel at provider site.
(1)
torguard extension is better than nothing
(2)

(3)
works with purchased dedicated ipv4 address
(4)
fast enough to load some websites sometimes
