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...

You do not need to set up port forwarding on the website. They give each customer a static IP, so as long as you configure your ip tables to allow port forwarding, it just works on any port. QBittorrent worked out of the box.

Here is the VPN setup page of Njalla. As you can see, it looks just as spartan as the public-facing parts of their website.

Gotcha, that makes sense now. Some VPN services do sell a dedicated IP in which case yes you can basically open as many ports as you like since they are all forwarded. That's great to hear, they'll definitely be on my VPN list next time I'm looking around for one.
