Mullvad is removing port forwarding (https://mullvad.net/fr/blog/2023/5/29/removing-the-support-for-forwarded-ports/). Is there a credible alternative ?

I'm testing now AirVPN and will decide after trying both parallel.
Would you mind reporting back your findings here? :)
What I can already say is that the Eddy app for android worked pretty bad on my Pixel 6. But with the Wireguard app everything is smooth. For my Fedora Installation I can say it works fine as long as I disable DHCP in the LAN config. There are better solutions but I did not dare to change anything deeper in the system so far. Even more as I mostly use my VPN over my router, and that way I have no DNS/IP leakage.
App wise Mullvad was much better.
Thanks for getting back to us!
Do you know if they have a setting for what Mullvad call "Local network sharing"? I.e. keep device with VPN visible and reachable by local network IP.
