If you don’t torrent.
They pussied out and removed port forwarding mid last year
Given their other privacy features, I’m okay with it. It’s easy to get another VPN for a month and do all the torrenting you need.
Torrents only work if at least one side has port forwarding enabled. And you don’t want to rely on other people having their ports open. In order to ensure you can actually connect to a seeder/peer, it’s best practice to enable port forwarding on your end.
The issue with this is that many VPN providers have stopped offering port forwarding services, because kiddy diddlers figured out a way to use port forwarding to privately share CSAM. So it has become difficult to torrent with a VPN, because pedos somehow manage to ruin everything.
I may have to look into a new VPN provider. What provider would you recommend that isn’t sus? Thank you!
