Now that mullvad has ended support for port forwarding, where should one go for P2P ? (lemmy.fmhy.ml)

I wanted to do some soulseek, but just as I began moving towards that this happened. What VPN should I use for this ? I don't want to use any of those over advertised shady VPNs like nordvpn (who was a spamming machine on my PC back when I used it) or surfshark or others if not necessary...

Dude still seems to be updating this; though, there doesn't look to be a column detailing port forwarding. Maybe look into a few of these that look good?

It was a good chart but stopped being updated around 2018/2019. I don't remember the specifics but IIRC the owner (That One Privacy Guy) sort of ran out of time / retired from doing that stuff. He was also active on Reddit moderating VPN subs for a while & was great at keeping out the VPN spammers/shills there.

He had his own website that was bought by SafetyDetectives (a spammy ranking / affiliate linking site) so for a while people were worried that the new owners would break the VPN google doc with paid referral listings & whatnot. Kind of disappointing that it would be bought by a company clearly promoting the opposite of what That One Privacy Guy was working towards.

I'm not sure if that Google Doc you linked is a copy, or maybe the last version that existed. It was never totally clear if SafetyDetectives actually got control of the Google Doc but the rest is history now.

Pretty certain I linked the new one. Shows created January 2022 and last updated May 2023.

EDIT: Weird the last updated cell does show 2019, but looking at the docs metadata through Google drive shows Jan 2022 and May 2023. You may be right though, this could be stale.

The upper-left cell still indicates last updated 12/19/2019. But in any case the sheet itself still links to the new owners (clicking https://thatoneprivacysite.xyz now forwards to https://www.safetydetectives.com/best-vpns/) so I wouldn't trust any changes to it.
