There’s way too much hype over VPN Providers, but do not forget, you are routing all your traffic through their servers
As a general advice, if a VPN provider keeps logs of your activity, does not allow you to pay with crypto, and generally spends way too much on youtube ads is probably not an ideal choice.
Do not follow any advice/recommendation blindly, do your own research on which one offers the best service for your own needs.
I still highly recommend Mullvad, they are generally an awesome company and havent had many issues with them beyond a few random sites blocking them which is to be expected.
Yeah, I would still be using mullvad if they hadn’t removed port forwarding – it’s too damn bad but I get why they needed it. Switched to Proton but I imagine they’ll run into the same issue down the road and will need to find a more permanent solution.
Mullvad used to be the no-brainer choice until they stopped supporting port forwarding. I kinda need it for seeding. ProtonVPN seems like a good idea for now.
I find that weird that so many struggle without port forwarding… my seeding is going just fine without port forwarding.
You’ll be fine in public trackers without port forwarding due to the abundance of participants. In private trackers, it matters much more.
