I switched away from Mullvad when they killed port forwarding years ago. I have used AirVPN since and it has always been pretty good!
What do you guys use port forwrding for?
Torrenting
one of the few good things about living in a fuckedup country is that I dont even use a vpn for torrenting.
I don't personally, but generally it's needed to keep your seed ratio high enough on private torrent trackers.
Also if you don't have port forwarding you can only connect to those who have. With port forwarding you can connect to every peer, so you get better download rates.
