Hello all,

I am running fedora with mullvad (wireguard) straight from the network settings with a configuration file.

According to https://mullvad.net/en/check everything is fine but I want to know if I am set for torrenting now that they have removed port forwarding and I cannot bind qbittorrent to the vpn.

Should I adjust anything or am I set? What was the benefit of port forwarding?

azirevpn.com is the one I'm on at the moment. Dunno if it's well-regarded but it seems good enough for my purposes. As well as Proton there's also Airvpn. If all you need it for is torrents then getting a seedbox is another option.

Seed boxes don’t do as well to hide your privacy as a vpn
