mullvad is good for most casual users but if you want to do anything technical i’d steer clear.
you can’t forward the ports anymore in mullvad. don’t get me wrong, they did it as a measure to reduce the volume of CSAM and other trauma-inducing imagery their administrators had to deal with and i totally respect that reasoning. people get legitimate PTSD moderating and administrating certain platforms/services.
just a shame torrenting gets made harder for everyone because of a handful of despicable individuals.
The reason they disabled this was it was a possible privacy leak. This means if you are using a VPN that enables port forwarding, you might be at risk.
