I’ve been putting off renewing my mullvad membership because of the port forwarding thing. I only want to use it for torrenting. Is it really crucial to find a VPN that supports port forwarding? If so, what’s the go to option now that it’s becoming increasingly uncommon?
It’s important for rare/poorly seeded torrents, but not at all important if it’s a new release movie or something like that which will be well seeded.
For me it’s incredibly important. If I don’t have port forwarding my status on qbit is restricted and I get like 10% of the speed I do when it’s open. This is for big torrents
True but this’ll only work long term if you download every new thing that you’ll want to watch now or sometime down the road.
