From the article:

Since Tailscale was founded in 2019, customers have been forced to choose between either Tailscale or Mullvad without the ability for them to co-exist.
Today we announce a partnership with Tailscale that allows you to use both in conjunction through the Tailscale app. This functionality is not available through the Mullvad VPN app. This partnership allows customers of Tailscale to make use of our WireGuard VPN servers as “exit nodes”. This means that whilst connected to Tailscale, you can access your devices across Tailscale’s mesh network, whilst still connecting outbound through Mullvad VPN WireGuard servers in any location.

Announcement also on Tailscale blog.

Wow this is great. I've been having trouble getting exit nodes working properly with these two. Sad that mullvad dropped port forwarding though so I'm not sure if I'll stay with them.

Yeah I swapped over to ProtonVPN after they dropped support for port forwarding. Shame really because I did really enjoy Mullvad's VPN service.

Does the port forwarding works on Linux CLI? Last time I checked it was only through their GUI app

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Yeah the Proton VPN gui app for Linux does not include port forwarding. I believe only their Windows app does at the moment. However, if you use their Wireguard certs and then follow their port forwarding instructions, it works quite well. Make sure you either disable IPv6 on your system or set IPv6 to link-local and add ::/0 to AllowedIPs, otherwise your IPv6 will leak since ProtonVPN does not support IPv6 at the moment.

I'm pretty sure it's entirely disabled. Their announcement post says it's being removed and doesn't call out any exceptions.

I run my clients through a gluetun container with forwarding set up and ever since their announced end of support date (July I think?) I have had 0B uploaded for any of my trackers.

E: realized you may be asking about proton, oops

Yeah I've been using it for about a year and half or so on my main devices and it's been wonderful. I'm likely going to down the list of supported providers from the gluetun docs and decide from there. Throwing my torrents and all that behind a vpn was the catalyst for signing up so I'll continue to look for that support first and everything else is secondary.
