Both IVPN and Mullvad have just removed port forwarding. I hear the options now are proton (which I hear may not have port forwarding on linux yet, but say they will) and AirVPN.
Port forwarding can be abused and also, exploited. I believe this was smart for many reasons, just get a secondary cheap VPN like IPVanish, NordVPN, VyprVPN, CyberGhost, any of those for DOWNLOADING would be sufficient enough. I would use only Mullvad or iVPN for anything I’d be taking very seriously however.
I agree, though this is better for over night downloads, (sometimes they can fail overnight sadly), but I would always recommend using that combo for downloading small files under 100MB that contain sensitive information or require strong security protocols.
While it can be abused, it can also not be abused, surprisingly enough. I don’t want a secondary cheap vpn for DOWNLOADING, I happen to SEED, you leech, and also use slsk which means I now can’t connect to anyone who also can’t forward their ports because they also use one of your cheap VPNs with no port forwarding for DOWNLOADING.
You are condescending, have added no new info, and you’re clearly just a leech, I’m pretty done with this conversation, sorry “pal.”
Wah, wah, wah. Some random guy on the internet with an opinion that differs from my own has voiced it on a federated social media platform!
Get a seed box and stop your little childish bitch-like behavior. Mr. “I’m a Seeder” 🤣🤣
I can see you don’t take your OPSEC very seriously then by not properly knowing and learning the facts about services like port forwarding and uPnP which auto forwards ports for example. Very dangerous shit if you don’t know what you’re doing and that’s just how it is man. Mullvad has been around since 2009, I think they know EXACTLY HOW to protect themselves and their users based on what I have seen so far in the judicial system.
Haha, good luck dude, and thank you for the laugh!
Lmao you’re in shambles my guy, why do you quote everything? Force of habit, or a severe misunderstanding of the English language? Don’t leaveeeee, you really brighten up my day sunshine 🤣🤣🤣

Alternatively, run TOR and a VPN while downloading. The speed will suck, but you should be way harder to track

Wah wah wah, I called some guy out for being a leech and he is now mad at me, whatever will I do?!
Go “danger” your own colon, I’m done talking to you.
