I see this was attempted a couple of years ago, but so much has changed since then.  NordVPN is easy to install on Debian, Ubuntu, and Fedora now.

I agree with this. nord, like most vpn services, provides openvpn and wireguard configs that should work with the existing openvpn and wireguard packages on void, without the risk of incompatibilities.

Comment:
Wouldn't you have to add each VPN server config to these programs for NordVPN to work?  That would be time-consuming and a pain to manage.

This makes using the actual NordVPN a better option IMO as it does all of this automatically..

Description:
[NordVPN](https://nordvpn.com/) is a paid VPN solution. However - its currently not available on Void :(

There are no source etc. to get, but [deb files are available](https://repo.nordvpn.com/deb/nordvpn/debian/pool/main/). I was able to dangle myself around to getting the binary files, only to find out that there is some systemd stuff going on I don't understand.

[Arch's AUR](https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=nordvpn-bin) isn't much help either.

Anyone able to sort this out?
