I use Mullvad and do not need to forward any ports for torrenting.
You do if you want to seed or use private trackers otherwise you can make any incoming connections.
5 € VPN + 5 € seedbox is a great combo. I would swear Mullvad is even faster now that they stopped supporting PF.
It is faster because they are losing subscribers, and because their remaining subscribers are having more difficulty connecting to peers due to lack of PF. I switched to Air VPN and was actually surprised how fast it was compared to Mullvad. (the Canadian servers at least, haven't tried many of the other servers).
Makes sense. My average upload amount dropped by 50%, too. What download speeds do you get with airvpn? I have 1 Gbps so anything below 80 MB/s wouldn't be worth switching.
I'm still seeding using Mullvad right now...
Most downloaders will not be able to reach you.
