Recently mullvad stopped the port forwarding, are there some other trustworthy VPN to do Torrenting out there or others solutions to do torrenting with Mullvad?

      Honesty the reason I never considered them is because they advertised so hard on YouTube and Podcasts that they annoyed me so I never considered them.

      Jesus, felt like there was a time when halfway through any YouTube video it became “and I learned about this browsing the internet safely with Nord VPN…”

        I use NordVPN to play some Raid Shadow Legends while I cook up a delicious meal from HelloFresh.

      They don’t offer port forwarding so it’s kinda pointless to use for torrenting.

          Although reading another comment makes me think maybe I don’t understand this as well as I think I do…….

      At least in the context of the question:

      1. they don’t have port forwarding. 2) their speeds for torrenting are crap.

      They are a great VPN. People hated them because it’s a fad to hate on the status quo, as well as their heavy and annoying advertising campaign.

        I have had them. At least for torrenting they are crap. No port-forwarding and crappy speeds. I’m not using them now, and I’m very happy.

        Also to watch content from other regions from streaming services. All their servers were banned…
