Changelog

• v3.0 no longer shows mbps info for each server, unfortunately NordVPN has removed this from the specifications field.

• v2.1 optional system requirement: fping to show ping times to servers

• v2.0 uses new NordVPN endpoint /v1/servers which has much more server info, reverse_geocode no longer needed.
