With mullvad not allowing portforwarding, should we be recommending it?
Came here to post this. If seeding is important to you, and I hope it kinda is, then you need port forwarding. So Mullvad is out, or at least I switched away from it.
Seed or die baby
I wonder if they couldn’t have just switched to NAT-PMP port forwarding like Proton does.
Switched to what? Mullvad was a trustworthy reliable staple.
I go with Njalla for torrents until I hear anything weird about them
About port forwarding, is it nessecary to download or just to upload?
I am no expert, but I think it does deal with both? Definitely upload, but I think that if your ports aren’t forwarded correctly then you won’t get as many download connections?
