Mullvad no longer supports port forwarding, making it completely useless for torrenting which is my main use case.
I find this interesting because I use Mozilla VPN, which is just rebranded Mullvad, and qBittorrent works just fine on it.
It's more that effective seeding is very hard without a forwarded port. If you only leech, you'll be fine. But that's not how the system is envisioned.
What about with something like Soulseek? I'm just getting into using it and still have no idea how to optimize using it, and doing so safely.
Can't really help you there, I haven't used Soulseek before.
