Hello, fellow linux ISO enjoyers,

as you may know, Mullvad VPN is disabling port forwarding 1st of July, which is a pity if you are serious about building that ratio.

Are there any other fast torrent-friendly vpn's with the ability to port forward and ideally ipv6? I have quite a number of torrents in my seedbox and was pretty happy with Mullvad since I was consistently able to squeeze around 800Mbps symmetrical from it, however it's time to move on.

Short rationale:
• You already have a seedbox, why bother with VPN?
Dealing with DMCA is pain and any hosting, which is sending complaints to /dev/null, has insane hardware prices for more demanding users. My seedbox is serving as a media archive since I seed everything I have indefinitely.

• You won't get complaints if you're using private trackers
Entry-level trackers are not bulletproof, I'm still using TL a lot and really, really don't want to move 10's of TB's of shit if asked.

Long story short: VPN works. The question is - which one?

Moved to Airvpn.. it works decent. Can't get same speeds as with Mullvad, though you can spin 5 devices meaning you can utilize better the bw.. their exit instances have 1Gbps connections shared with all users connected to the node.
