I had Mullvad and the port forwarding was awesome but that is going away soon.

Ive tried to look around for the best vpns but I keep reading really mixed things so here I am hoping to get some answers for the best vpn for torrenting that has port forwarding.

I've been using AirVPN. Definitely went out shopping for something with port forwarding in mind

I really like Private Internet Access. https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/

I used to use this but then there was that whole thing about them being bought out by a shady company

I’ve been a fan of both Mullvad and ProtonVPN for years. I ultimately went with ProtonVPN since it is included in my Visionary plan anyways. I did like Private Internet Access until they got bought by an adware company.

Anyways, ProtonVPN supports P2P and still has port forwarding. I’ve never had issues with the paid plan, but have heard of problems on the free tier.

Do you know if ProtonVPN supports port forwarding on Linux or via Wireguard? I have read it only works on windows. It’s between that and IVPN to replace Mullvad since they dropped port forwarding.
