I’ve been putting off renewing my mullvad membership because of the port forwarding thing. I only want to use it for torrenting. Is it really crucial to find a VPN that supports port forwarding? If so, what’s the go to option now that it’s becoming increasingly uncommon?

    Without PF, you won’t be able to seed. So if you’re only using public trackers where you don’t care about ratio, you’ll be fine without PF

    With private trackers, some people will say a VPN is unnecessary.

    Personally, I’ll be switching to proton vpn for my seeding traffic. But I’m already paying for the proton suite
