Are there any VPNs that didn’t? I couldn’t really find any, and tbh it’s not a massive issue for torrenting. I still upload a fair bit, but obviously not as much as I would be if I had ports open.
Private Internet Access and Njalla both allow port forwarding.
Mullvad is heavily shilled, and for some reason no online discussion ever ends on a critical note. Be wary and don’t assume the group is always correct.
P2P requires at least 1 person to have open port forwarding. Ideally, everyone has it open on their VPN. The more people start recommending vpns without it, the more torrents as a whole start to die as everyone I inherently becomes a burden on the system.
Fair point. I just assumed most people reading my message wouldn’t care much about torrenting, but in this economy where censorship is pretty much happening, port forwarding would definitely be a plus. Do you have better suggestions?
Advertising for mullvad harms the peer2peer network. (They blocked port forwarding and won’t be bringing it back)

AirVPN allow port forwarding.
I use Mullvad for my day to day devices like my phone and laptop, and AirVPN in my homelab for things like torrenting.
How does it harm p2p? I’ve been downloading and seeding without issue. Genuine question

What VPN(s) would you recommend?
