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?

I'm more concerned with the fact that they're removing features without reducing price or making up for it elsewhere. I have no desire to support that business when there are perfectly fine alternatives.

Would you mind making some examples please?

I use PIA (probably the cheapest out there). If you just care about torrenting, they’re quite good. I can saturate my Gbit connection and they offer PF (only for p2p applications though)
